| Message | We believe that this bill is a step backward in terms of ecology. Not only that, but it is very scattered and disorganized. We are against this bill. |

| Message | Dependong on the views of our Parliamentary colleagues, we might consider voting for Article 3 on its own (certain animals are not, in our view, suitable for a domestic environment), but we definitely oppose this bill as it stands. |

| Message | Though we would like to see a slightly less extreme policy concerning private car ownership, the one proposed is unacceptable to us, as are Articles 2 and 3. |

| Message | we have discussed the matter of private cars not too long ago... and although this may be quite extreme (although i support it), looking through the available options, this seems to be the most suitable one... I would consider supporting article 3 only.... |
