| Date | 15:06:05, February 18, 2014 CET | From | Telamon Nationellpartiet-Republikansk | To | Debating the Electricity Nationalisation Act 3624 |
| Message | This would be entirely affordable, the money raised by the government in the sale of electricity would be used to maintain and operate power generation. It would simultaneously provide electricity at a lower cost than currently available to citizens due to the fact the state does not have shareholders to pay. |
