| Date | 17:52:32, January 21, 2012 CET | From | Hutorian Conservative Party | To | Debating the Forward Hutori programme |
| Message | Rt Hon Samantha Riley MP, Hutorian Prime Minister, Mr Speaker, whilst the HCP would support Articles 2 and 4 and would give serious consideration to the merits of Article 5, we must reject this Bill overall. We oppose regulation within the Hutorian economy and Articles 1, 3 and 6 would compromise our ideological stance. Mr Speaker, we would however welcome the FHP if they put forward the Articles we mentioned separately and we could vote in favour of them if they were presented in the House individually. |
