| Message | Mr Speaker, Although we find the current law of allowing an abortion during the entire course of a pregnancy to be utterly morally objectionable, we cannot support such a heavy restriction on the practise either. As such we urge the legislature to oppose this bill and instead support our party's "Abortion Rationality Act 4149", the only bill which has a chance of appeasing most sides of the State Council. Sara Voight, PLFP, Finance Minister |

| Message | Mr Speaker, Despite opposing this proposal, we believe this is safer than the current law. Due to our proposed Abortion Rationality Act 4149 being due to fail, we will reluctantly vote in favour of this bill, however we will not rule out legalizing abortions in the first trimester later on in this term. Sara Voight, PLFP, Finance Minister |

| Message | Mr Speaker, Upon an agreement reached with the LAP, we will once again withdraw our support from this bill due to the Abortion Rationality Act now having a chance at victory. Sara Voight, Finance Minister |
