| Message | Madam Speaker, This is needless economic interventionism; the future for the Beluzian economy is one of Free Market thinking. When the best businesses - the ones that provide the finest service at the keenest prices - are allowed to thrive, as per Free Market forces, that is when our economy can reach its potential. The New Liberal Party is committed to liberalising the economy, and providing that future for Beluzia. This Bill will not provide stronger Government and a stronger Beluzia; it will herald a weaker economy, and therefore a weaker Beluzia. Sen. Claire Murray Finance Spokesperson, New Liberal Party |

| Date | 01:39:37, August 02, 2016 CET | From | Socialist Progressive Alliance | To | Debating the A stronger government for a stronger Beluzia |
| Message | Madam Speaker, While the reforming of our Economic policy is of the utmost concern to the SPA, we cannot agree to Article 2 of this proposal. While we do support Article 1 and 3, we cannot at this moment support this bill. Rosalyn Cartwright Finance Spokesperson, Socialist Progressive Alliance |
