| Message | Shanique Harrison Meryneter, Member from Saqqad, Federationists Floor Leader: Mr. President, We wholeheartedly support a repeal of the current policy on domestic military deployment, and therefore we as Federationists will support the Jarqa Act. However, we wish to note for the record that we do not believe this bill goes far enough. We as Federationists are staunchly against deploying the Armed Forces domestically under any circumstances. If Labor Party members wish to partner on a more thorough reform in the current bill, we would heartily welcome it. Otherwise, we will pursue a ban on Armed Forces domestic deployment in a different bill. Thank you Mr. President. I yield. |

| Message | Alexander Sasmew, Party Leader Mr. President We do understand your opposition to the national military being used in domestic situations, but such a measure is necessary in disasters so massive that the regional government does not have the resources or manpower to control it. If we completely ban it from receiving aid from the military, it will only result in regional disaster. However, on the other hand, if we back the police with the military 24/7, we essentially put in place martial law. I yield the floor. |

| Message | Shanique Harrison Meryneter, Member from Saqqad, Federationists Floor Leader: Mr. President, I thank my colleague Mr. Sasmew for explaining in further detail the reasoning behind the current Jarqa bill. While we as Federationists continue to advocate a complete ban as Mr. Sasmew has acknowledged, we understand that Article 1 is a fair compromise for now. Therefore we will fully support this bill if and when it comes to vote and we look forward to working with the new President to closely monitor the role of the Armed Forces in domestic affairs once he or she is appointed by Her Majesty. Thank you Mr. President, I yield. |
