Bill: 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.

Description[?]:
| It is about time that each part of the Gemeinwesen are able to preserve their own customs without intervention from the central government. If we are to live together, we must grant to the local governments those possibilities. However, those provisions must be supplemented by a safeguard : the curriculum from each sub-national government must not spread hate to the fellows from other parts of the country nor glorifiate unduly one nation at the expanse of the other. |
