| Message | Mr. Speaker, we support this but with the intention to reform the provision given in this porposal. We do not see the reason to extend the prerogatives of the president, since we are a federal republic with federal government as the highest executive authority. We are in favor of transferring the jurisdiction over declaring of the state of the emergency to the federal chancellor. Loretta Baldimo, Federal Minister of Internal Affairs |

| Random fact: Players have a responsibility to differentiate between OOC (out-of-character) and IC (in-character) behaviour, and to make clear when they are communicating in OOC or IC terms. Since Particracy is a role-playing game, IC excesses are generally fine, but OOC attacks are not. However, players must not presume this convention permits them to harass a player with IC remarks that have a clear OOC context. |
