| Message | Very strongly opposed to this cruel and callous attempt to strip rights from Kirlawa's young adults. |
| Date | 18:29:39, May 20, 2017 CET | From | Royal Party | To | Debating the Adult Age Act |
| Message | This is an attempt young people from being exploited. 15 years olds can be taken advantage of with regard to employment, sexual consent and many other matters. |

| Message | Would you compromise with a lower age? 15 is just too early. |
| Date | 01:12:28, May 21, 2017 CET | From | Kirlawan People's Justice Party | To | Debating the Adult Age Act |
| Message | We'd be glad to compromise at 16, if you would. |
| Date | 01:14:35, May 21, 2017 CET | From | Royal Party | To | Debating the Adult Age Act |
| Message | Yes 16 is far more reasonable. I'll amend the bill. Should this lead to a one year increase in the retirement age? |
| Date | 01:16:08, May 21, 2017 CET | From | Kirlawan People's Justice Party | To | Debating the Adult Age Act |
| Message | Thank you! We're opposed to any increase in the retirement age, sorry. (Decrease is fine, of course.) |
| Date | 01:17:38, May 21, 2017 CET | From | Royal Party | To | Debating the Adult Age Act |
| Message | No problem. I wouldn't wish to lower retirement anymore, 60 is already low. I'll leave the bill as an increase of adult age to 16. |
| Date | 01:23:12, May 21, 2017 CET | From | Kirlawan People's Justice Party | To | Debating the Adult Age Act |
| Message | Thank you -- we feel that 16 is much more reasonable than 18, and will support the compromise. |
