Description[?]:
| Mr Speaker, The title of this bill names the three things Dranland will regain if these three articles are approved by the House. For too long Dranland has toiled under an eco job killing regimen fueled only by hysteria and the 'he screams the loudest' mentality. The BCB propose that this state of being be reversed to a Dranland where no one cared about useless whales, hunting was not reviled and owning a car was not a sin. Joan Wigley BCB Environment Critic Member for Ulbrach |

| Message | We support Article 1, but not 2 or 3, and therefore, have to oppose this bill. We believe that environmentally friendly cars should be the norm, and that whaling should remain illegal. -Caroline Ortega, Leader of the Phillipsian Party |

| Message | Mr Speaker, Although we are in favour of the articles in this bill, the sentiment expressed by the bill description forces us to abstain. Far from killing jobs, private investment into environmentally-friendly and renewable technologies can in fact create and sustain thousands of jobs. However, environmental progress must not come at a cost to individual citizens' freedom to make their own, informed choices. Julian Edwards MP Enviroment and Tourism Minister (PP) |
