| Message | Alessandro Vallario, EL chairman "Whaling is by definition endangering the existence of whales. The purpose cannot defy the horrible whale-hunting business, and frankly, I don't think it has much scientific value. And even if it has some value, we can study them without killing them." |

| Message | Camilla Morducco, Minister of Science and Technology "We don't understand. There are certain things that we may only study if the whale is dead. Now, we could not kill whales, buy that would limit our ability to study those magnificent creatures." |

| Message | Alessandro Vallario, EL chairman "Dear minister, I'm sure scientists can do the research on naturally deceased whales, if it's so important. But killing whales just to admire their anatomy is hypocritical. This could put whales on the endangeres species list, and that would be very critical, as whales are an important factor in the oceanic ecosistems." |

| Message | Beniamino Massa, AI Whip, Another bill which is a populist scam to look good for the masses, for your voter group. "Protection of the Whales" you call it, I call it scientific hinderence. Do you want to send us back to the stone age? We evolved as a species by studying animals and sometimes you have to tragically kill the whale, for the better of the Istalian people. Also we call again for the dissolution of the coalition of the left as clearly there is too much disagreement in their ranks, on d.d.l. As evidenced by the FR. |

| Message | Alessandro Vallario, EL chairman "I would kindly ask Mr. Massa to calm his tones. It's not like studying whales will bring us to Mars and stop the slaughtering of them surely won't throw us in the stone age. You're exaggerating and making a fool out of yourself." |

| Message | "Unlike the right, which are obsessed with killing - whether it be the killing of whales, trees or fellow human beings with nuclear weapons or landmines - this leftist government is formed on the principles of protecting and caring. We want to create a more just society, not a more violent one." - Emilia Reenkes-Morace, Minister for the Environment and Tourism |
