Description[?]:

As long as we don't introduce a total ban on pornography, using tax money to try to keep it from minors is largely wasteful. Parents are better left to regulate this.

| Message | Mr. Speaker, There is considerable evidence that exposing children to pornography can be harmful to them, because they are not mature enough to understand what they are really dealing with. They may come away with an attitude, for example, that women are sex objects, or even that it is okay to molest or rape women. For this reason, we would prefer children were not able to walk into stores and purchase pornographic material. Wook Tanaka GNP spokesperson |

| Message | Mr Tanaka, Why do you believe the state is more competant in raising children than parents? James Karshaw, NL Leader |

| Message | Mr Speaker, It is certainly not our ambition to replace parents with the state. What we do want to do, however, is to support parents in their efforts to protect their young children from pornographic material that would be harmful to them. Wook Tanaka GNP spokesperson |
