Bill: Media Reform
Details
Submitted by[?]: Traxian Imperial Party
Status[?]: defeated
Votes: This is an ordinary bill. It requires more yes votes than no votes. This bill will not pass any sooner than the deadline.
Voting deadline: October 2166
Description[?]:
We belive that the government should allow more freedom of media by allowing private media companies. This will improve civil rights, bring more revenue as we can tax these new companies. We should though still fund a non-profit organistaion to provide a nationalised company for media. OOC: much like the UK system. |
