Bill: Culture Decentralization Act
Details
Submitted by[?]: Demokrat Konservativen Partei (DKP)
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: January 3904
Description[?]:
| We suggest that the local governments should have more hold over culture. Our country population is too diverse for the central government to understand how each person should be taught its history and its culture. Our education ministry is sorely misadapted to our situation. Of course, the central government can still subsidize the local governments in order for them to be able to pay mostly equally for those services. This should ease the worries of those who would be opposing those ideas only because they fear more inequality would be its result. |
