| Message | Mr Speaker, This bill is far too restrictive and invasive; current policies in our opinion are fair enough. Hannes Ellmenreich, FD Leader |

| Message | Mr. Speaker, highly restrictive pollution standards are too much, 95% of industries in the Federal Republic of Dorvik are in compliance with A-T5 pollution standard with only moderate standard in place. It would be too invasive in the economy to impose a highly restrictive standard. As for the second proposal, we see no reason for the government to take away the possibility of creating numerous jobs and limiting competition on the free market by nationalizing waste disposal sector. It would cause unnecessary increase in the federal spending plan. And finally the third one. Imposing this proposal would cause an implementation of double standard and would be nothing more than cloning current laws. Emilly Wagner, Bundeskanzlerin. |
