| Message | OOC: this is against the rules, you can force a party to do anything. (As in voting) |
| Date | 22:37:56, June 23, 2016 CET | From | Luthori Progressive Party | To | Debating the Government Reform Act |
| Message | OOC: As there are no proposals, I believe that this bill is just for roleplay purposes (i.e. the voting part is non-binding and can be ignored) |
| Date | 23:12:15, June 23, 2016 CET | From | Imperial Conservative Union (IA) | To | Debating the Government Reform Act |
| Message | OOC: Even roleplay laws can be binding, but you can't force a vote. Plus something like this would require 2/3rds to pass as it would be "constitutional" at the National level. This would have no effect at the Imperial level. |
