Description[?]:
| This bill has been put up to change the health system. The political lines and the effectiveness has to be more clean-cut. It is in our opinion the a state responsibility to reassure a healty population. Article 1) It is important to reassure that the sale of food is done in a proper manner and that the quality is the best. Therefore vendors must have a license to sell food. Article 2) The HPP don't see any good in recreational drugs. Article 3) We don't see the sense in allowing purchase of tobacco when it is prohibited to smoke it. |

| Message | We support article 1, however have problems with articles 2 and 3. Article 2 is merely the freedom of the people to take whatever drugs they wish to, as long as they have been passed by medical scrutiny and are not involved in any actions that may lead to harm to others (i.e. at work, driving etc). Article 3 we do not support. Though smoking is prohibited as it harms the those around the smoker as well as the individual, article 3 continues to allow for personal choice in relation to what an individual may consume. Should the HPP split article 1 from this proposal, we would support it. |

| Message | We agree with the WSS on everything except article 1. Under the proposed laws kids running a charity cake sale would have to obtain a licence for it. Licencing would be an expensive solution to a minor problem and it would be hard to enforce. |
| Date | 02:57:25, December 03, 2005 CET | From |  Liberal-Progressive Union | To | Debating the Natinaol Health Act |
| Message | I disagree with all. I feel the restrictions on tobacco is enough, on 2) why deny personal choice for the citizens. The government shouldn't assume it knows what is best for it's citizens. 3) I agree with with UB. |
| Date | 16:56:59, December 03, 2005 CET | From | We Say So! Party | To | Debating the Natinaol Health Act |
| Message | Why shouldn't a charity cake sale require a licence? All it does is increase consumer confidence in the products being sold, what's wrong with that? |
| Date | 16:59:57, December 03, 2005 CET | From | United Blobs | To | Debating the Natinaol Health Act |
| Message | Why the need for such bureacracy? |
| Date | 15:02:55, December 04, 2005 CET | From | Liberal-Progressive Union | To | Debating the Natinaol Health Act |
| Message | I would go the other way with smoking, and make that legal. Blasphemy I know, but .. |
| Date | 17:46:47, December 04, 2005 CET | From | Deltarian Nationalist Party | To | Debating the Natinaol Health Act |
| Message | WOW, i'd of thought i proposed this myself. |
| Date | 17:48:41, December 04, 2005 CET | From | Deltarian Nationalist Party | To | Debating the Natinaol Health Act |
| Message | What would make licencing food vendors that much harder than those who sell alcohol? Charity events manage to get a cheap alcohol licence. |
| Date | 17:50:54, December 04, 2005 CET | From | United Blobs | To | Debating the Natinaol Health Act |
| Message | Most charity events that serve alcohol use a venue that is licenced rather than getting their own licence. |
| Date | 10:50:09, December 05, 2005 CET | From | Hobrazian Peoples Party | To | Debating the Natinaol Health Act |
| Message | wether it is kids or adults who run a charity the money goes to a hopefully good cause....therefore it is nessecary to secure 1: that those who buy cakes (and others) get what they pay for 2: that whom the money goes to will not be associated with bad consumer confidence. |
| Date | 11:55:21, December 05, 2005 CET | From | Deltarian Nationalist Party | To | Debating the Natinaol Health Act |
| Message | Church halls are not licenced venues but can easily get a temporary alcohol licence for charity events and private functions. |
