| Date | 18:18:09, February 13, 2017 CET | From | Socialist Alliance for Workers Unity | To | Debating the Advertising Act of 4165 |
| Message | The Labour-Democratic Alliance can agree on the issue of religious organizations being able to advertise themselves freely, this is a right that they should have. On the other proposals, we would have to say no. We believe that the regulations in place allow the consumer to purchase products with a certain degree of understanding of what they are buying. These advertising regulations, combined with the measures we have in place concerning food and ingredient labeling, give the Cildanian consumer a great amount of consumer protection. |
