| Message | Beniamino Massa, Leader of AI "Honorable Carlo Fogghi, this bill has many great parts, but also not so great parts. We would support Articles: 1 (only due to the current legislation), 2, 5, and 7. However we will vote against this bill, as our principles do not allow abortion during the whole pregnancy, as it is immoral.Article 4 is too harsh, I think the general public is competent to handle small fireworks. Article 6 just kills small breweries, so we cannot support it, as we are always happy to enjoy a glas of home made red wine. Sorry, I got carried away." |

| Message | Carlo Fogghi, Minister "But, as you sir have mentioned, you support the majority of the articles in the first place. And article 6 could be removed by you, as you hold the ministry of infrastructure. And we do understand why you would oppose article 4." |
