| Message | Mr. Speaker, We cannot support any legislation that fully privatizes our railways. We feel the government should at least have a small stake in the railways through the operation of a government owned TOC; that is where the Commonwealth Transportation Company or Comtrac comes into play. Alan Landis UPR Congressional Leader |

| Message | Mr. Speaker, The Commonwealth Transportation company could still be serving Rutania as the largest Railway, it will just be privatized. Drew McAndrews RFP Parliamentary Leader |
