| Message | Luke Matthews, RP: "The building and maintenance of shelters is incredibly important not only to are nation defence but the protection of the people. This is why the building and maintenance of shelters should remain under the powers to the local governments. They best know there own counties and where they will be needed." |

| Message | Home Secretary: "I rise to address the concerns of the gentleman opposite. The lack of coordination, uniform standards, and funding, severely hampers the effectiveness of the limited existing civil defense network. We should not have some citizens better protected or inadequately protected just based upon the nature of their hometown." |
