| Message | Mr. Speaker, We have our reservations about Article 3. The rest of the bill, however, has inspired a debate on the GNRG's environmental policy within our next generation of party executives. -- Gordon Fertig, Chairman of the GNRG, President of Lodamun |

| Message | Mr. Speaker, We are quite happy to support this bill. This was a little-studied area of governmental policy that matters a great deal in terms of ecology. Article three also has our skepticism but we will be voting for it anyway. XXX David Edward Sutch Spokesperson for the Environment and Tourism |

| Message | Mr Speaker. We under that animal populations may increase because of the ban. However this should'nt be a problem as when the moment arises this presidium should take action accordingly. Right now our main concern is the various endangered species being exploited by this current government and its ways. Samantha Murreloz D.A Representative on Environment and Tourism |
