Description[?]:
| Mr Speaker, For too long our communities and families have been witness to the onslaught that drugs are. They pervade our community, tear families apart and weaken the basic foundation of our proud culture. Such use, and the subsequent drain on our national culture have strained us. The NFP says no and we will continue to fight drug use and work for legal solutions against it. Drug use harms not only the victim but the family, the outer social structure around them suffers as a result of their boost. We as a people must say without doubt that we reject drug use and that we will fight against it and its corrosive effects. Silas Orkard Parliamentary Leader |

| Message | Mr Speaker, the harmful effects of drugs are out of question, but slapping excessive regulations on cannabis and the production of hemp will do nothing but benefit the black market. We must learn to accept that free people own their body and, just like we allow them to consume alcohol, must acknowledge their right to consume other controversial substances as well.
