| Message | Mr. Speaker, We favour the status quo. Where there is an overwhelming interest for the compulsory purchase of private property or land, compulsory purchase powers are desirable. |

| Message | Mr. Speaker, Where there is overwhelming interest for corporations to corrupt government power to support their own ends, it is desirable to abolish this avenue of corruption. |

| Message | Mr. Speaker, We have other means of preventing corporations from influencing government. This is not a means to do this, this is a way to use governmental authority. The argument makes absolutely no sense in this perspective, i think that given the recent series of privatisations your own party supported there might be a double agenda here? |
