| Message | Mr. Wellcrum, Why the cut in spending? I yield (OOC: I am assuming that I would not use Mr. Speaker, since my party holds HoG right now, so the HoG is talking) |
| Date | 00:43:34, August 20, 2013 CET | From | Imperial Conservative Union (IA) | To | Debating the Budget proposal of October 3532 |
| Message | OOC: No the HoG is the Speaker, and is thus the 650 member of the Diet. Which is why we have 649 as our number. He does not talk as he is the chief bureaucrat of the empire has he has been for the past 1000 years. Yet that would take reading have the cultural protocols and such that you obviously just don't give a damn about. |

| Random fact: In order for a Cabinet bill to pass, more than half of the legislature must vote for it and all of the parties included in the proposed Cabinet must support it. If your nation has a Head of State who is also the Head of Government, then the party controlling this character must also vote for the bill, since the Head of Government is also a member of the Cabinet. If any of these requirements are not met, the bill will not pass. |
