Details
Submitted by[?]: Partito Nazionale Democratico
Status[?]: passed
Votes: This is an ordinary bill. It requires more yes votes than no votes. This bill will not pass any sooner than the deadline.
Voting deadline: December 4286
Description[?]:
| Demetrio Votta, PNP Speaker for Finance, Honorable Parliamentarians, This is the most vital reform, that we are willing to propose, as since the take over by the 'progressive' government, we have seen nothing but economic stagnation. This freedom in the market, ensuring flexibility for employers and employees, is what makes a nation a superpower, which despite our desire to leave Istalia as soon as possible, we still wish for it to be. We want to leave behind a positive legacy. Thank you. |

| Random fact: Cabinet ministers who disagree seriously with the head of government would usually be expected to resign. Parties within the cabinet may attempt to manoeuvre to replace the head of government though, for example by proposing a new cabinet bill or voting for an early election. |
