Status[?]: defeated
Votes: This is an ordinary bill. It requires more yes votes than no votes. This bill will not pass any sooner than the deadline.

Description[?]:
| The practice of child labour is immoral. The people who use this type of labor could try to take advantage of the kids. such as subjecting them to poor work conditions. This also takes away from a child's school time, which is important for them to become working members of society. This is why I must propose the Labor Act. |

| Message | Herr Speaker, Child labour has additional regulations to adult labourers. Do you want to know what child labour encompasses? Paper rounds and small jobs like that. Under your proposal, it will be illegal for a kid to run a paper round. Christine Schulze, Leader of the Opposition |

| Message | Mr. Speaker, first thing I would like to sort out is that you are the leader of the FP not the entire oppostition and your entitlement is invalid but with that aside we seek more justification of this proposal while we proposed a simmilar solution a coupe of years ago, we see the solution in precising the curent law. There is a difference between the words labour and work. Labour indicates a physical aspect of performed work and that's what is worrying about that and indicates the defects in current law system. Semantics is in fact one of the most crucial aspects of the law system. Olaf Fasbender, DSU LEADER (Not the opposiotion leader 'cause we're not two-party state) |

| Message | Mr. Speaker, the first sentence of my previous statement is of course addressed to Mrs. Schulze. Olaf Fasbender, DSU LEADER |

| Message | Uhh, why would you mention you are opposition leader? FP leader is opposition leader, since they are leader of largest opposition party. |
| Date | 01:10:32, October 10, 2016 CET | From | Dorvisch Nationale Volkspartei | To | Debating the Child Labor Act of 4102 |
| Message | But that does not mean DSU is in the official opposition though. |
| Date | 01:12:49, October 10, 2016 CET | From | Dorvisch Nationale Volkspartei | To | Debating the Child Labor Act of 4102 |
| Message | Also the DNVP will abstain so as to not radically change their political position. |

| Message | Olaf Fasbender, You are right. A proper written article will be needed to determine child labour and work. |
| Date | 12:32:03, October 10, 2016 CET | From | Vorwärts Republik! | To | Debating the Child Labor Act of 4102 |
| Message | Herr Speaker, It would appear the DSU can't help but get sidetracked, the FP is the leader of the opposition, they are the largest, that is how works. They and ourselves are the other opposition, I would have hoped a party in the Council understood this basic detail. However back to the point at hand, we cannot vote for this, small jobs on Saturdays or during school holidays help children to learn to manage their money and so on, it gives them a feeling of independence and pride. We need to properly define child labour if we were to abolish it. Susanne Krauss, Leader of the AfD, |

| Message | "Uhh, why would you mention you are opposition leader? FP leader is opposition leader, since they are leader of largest opposition party." No that means that FP leader is the leader of the biggest opposition party not the opposition... and where on earth did I mention I was the opposition leader? |
| Date | 19:06:11, October 10, 2016 CET | From | Konservative Union | To | Debating the Child Labor Act of 4102 |
| Message | So maybe we should call it "His or Her Royal Highness' Loyal Opposition". We refuse to accept this nomenclature. |
| Date | 22:26:42, October 10, 2016 CET | From | Dorvisch Nationale Volkspartei | To | Debating the Child Labor Act of 4102 |
| Message | "His or Her Royal Highness"? WTF? In a republic? |
| Date | 23:45:15, October 10, 2016 CET | From | Konservative Union | To | Debating the Child Labor Act of 4102 |
| Message | So stop calling the leader of one of many opposition parties in parliament the leader of the opposition... he's just the leader of the party. |
| Date | 13:33:09, October 11, 2016 CET | From | Dorvisch Nationale Volkspartei | To | Debating the Child Labor Act of 4102 |
| Message | Herr Fasbender, The Fortschritts Partei is the official opposition because they are the leader of the largest party in the opposition. This issue will not go any further. Any party can consider itself a member party of the Fortschritts opposition (probably the AfD), while the DSU remains independent from the government and opposition. |
