| Message | We oppose this bill. Children need to learn necessary life skills and this unfairly restricts their prospects to be contributing members of society. |

| Message | Mr Speaker, Children learn to be contributing members of society by spending time in school. Please, do tell what a 12 year old child can get out of working in a steel factory other than monetary compensation. I suggest the NCP get their priorities in order. Park ji-won GHD Chairwoman |

| Message | Dear Chairwoman, School doesn't necessarily give them the experience required to function in the workforce. By being permitted to enter the workforce earlier, they can not only acquire the experience at employment, but earn money to pay for their education later on-perhaps learning to be captains of industry themselves. Our party is not against school itself, we are for equal-opportunity of all our nation's citizens to earn money. In addition we also want to keep our economy strong, and feel that eliminating child-labor would negatively impact our economy. Kim Minjun NCP Chairman |
| Date | 20:28:38, March 23, 2017 CET | From | Conservative Party (보수당) | To | Debating the Abolition of Child Labor Act |
| Message | As we support the Republican Party on this, we believe eliminating it will not have a negative impact on our economy. If anything getting rid of it will strengthen it as it mean we will have more highly educated people doing jobs better than a load of children who do not know what to do |

| Random fact: It is the collective responsibility of the players in a nation to ensure all currently binding RP laws are clearly outlined in an OOC reference bill in the "Bills under debate" section of the nation page. Confusion should not be created by displaying only some of the current RP laws or displaying RP laws which are no longer current. |
