Message | Mr. Speaker, we might agree with the proposal on nurseries, but not on the other one. Students should not be studying untill their 18 if they don't like school. They can offer the nation so much more. Hard work pays off sometimes. WBy proposing this you should also consider the age at which one is considered adult. Joe Anders NWL MP |

Message | Mr Speaker, If it will secure the support of the NWL and the CS we will amend this bill to remove Article 1 for the time being. Could I enquirer as to whether any other parties wish to express a view on these issues?

Message | Mr. Speaker, I don't care what Mr. d'Arcy is thinking. We have been voting from the heart. For once, his party came up with a positive proposal.

Message | M. Speaker, The LPA will be voting against this bill. We believe that is is irresponsible and potentially harmful to leave these private establishments unregulated. Mark Thompson Minister of Education and Culture |
Date | 16:53:04, December 18, 2015 CET | From | Pro Lodamunese Unitarian Party | To | Debating the Reform of Education Act |
Message | We have reversed out initial decision and reevaluated the proposed bill, and see that the LPA's words ring true. It is irresponsible to keep these private establishments unregulated.

Then they came for me--and by that time no one was left to speak up." - Pastor Martin Niemoller |
