Message | Mr Speaker, Solidarity Rutania today introduces our counter proposal in response to the Libertarian Party's Education Reform Act. Our proposed legislation will permit greater access to higher education and provide a framework for strong standards in primary and secondary education. Not only will this improve equality within Rutania, but is crucial for our knowledge based economy. I encourage all parties to support this legislation to invest in our children and invest in education. Francine Robertson Co-Spokesperson, Solidarity Rutania |
