| Minister of Internal Affairs Lodewijk Maeystad presents this bill to the States-General.

However, we shouldn't treat it as something out of reach, exotic." |

| Random fact: It is the collective responsibility of the players in a nation to ensure all currently binding RP laws are clearly outlined in an OOC reference bill in the "Bills under debate" section of the nation page. Confusion should not be created by displaying only some of the current RP laws or displaying RP laws which are no longer current. |
