| Message | OOC: I didn't mean full caps, just capital letters at the start of words sorry if that was poorly worded. We feel we could support this bill unless a robust argument is presented against it. |

| Message | The DFA supports this bill fully. Whilst it will not fully prevent children gaining access to fireworks, it will indeed cut the numbers down considerably. |

| Message | We would oppose the restriction of the right to possess fireworks. Therefore we will likely vote no if given the opportunity. We see it as a restriction if liberty. |
