| Date | 04:11:00, January 30, 2015 CET | From |  Parti Démocratique | To | Debating the Loi sur L'éducation 3793 |
| Message | The PD feels uncomfortable with Article 6 concerning practical testing, but otherwise supports this legislation. |
| Date | 07:12:26, January 30, 2015 CET | From | Loyalistes de Lyvelines | To | Debating the Loi sur L'éducation 3793 |
| Message | Home schooling is backwards and intolerable. The purpose of education is, first and foremost, to give discipline to children and to teach them how to behave in a social environment. Article 5 is just bigoted nationalist pandering. We, moreover, agree with the PD on Article 6. |

| Random fact: It usually takes up to an hour for election results to generate. During this time, the "Next Election" date is put forward a month, which is confusing. Do not worry! In a short time, the election result will generate and the "Next Election" date will then correct itself. |
