Bill: Feline Regiatration Programme
Details
Submitted by[?]: Beluz Democratic Karavist Party
Status[?]: defeated
Votes: This bill is a resolution. It requires more yes votes than no votes. This bill will not pass any sooner than the deadline.
Voting deadline: June 3344
Description[?]:
| This bill will allow felines and humans to be co-citizens. There is no harm in co-existence. Felines will have access to the same education and healthcare benefits. The government will pay for them to be educated in Barmenia, while healthcare will be taken care of locally. In addition, since a status of "citizenship" disqualifies humans from being considered the "national animal" then the same will need to be applied for all felines. Currently, such benefits are provided to the Katravs, the feline bloodline of Karav Manor. We should expand the prosperity to all felines. |

| Message | We are in support of this act. However, as rights come along with duties, may we ask that will the duties from citizenship, such as taxation, be applied to the felines as well? If so, we are also very interested in the methods of communication and integration of the feline population to its human counterpart. -Takanashi Priestess-Nobles |

| Message | The International Resource Centre, in Iliathar, was built for both humans and felines, because companies in Barmenia are on the stock market. Note the last 2 sentences in this bill passed in July 3331: http://classic.particracy.net/viewbill.php?billid=353315 I can imagine felines, both employees and clients, in the International Resource Centre. Cats can easily find jobs in the military, and entertainment or marketing industries. We are not saying all felines must have jobs, but when a feline has a steady job, he/she is obligated to pay income taxes. High Countess Celeste, Karav Matriarch |

| Message | Greetings to the felines, men, and women of the Federal Council of Nobles, The Feline Homeland of Barmenia is pleased by this move towards equal rights. It helps bring our two nations to the same direction in regards to foreign policy. We look forward to further ties of trade, friendship, and prosperity in the future. -Hawkins Ryder, Minister of Justice, Feline Homeland of Barmenia |
