| Message | We welcome debate on this issue. Our current reasoning is that individuals granted titles of nobility by foreign governments may feel free to use them even if they are not officially granted or recognized by our government. However, if you would be more willing to vote for this bill if there was an outright ban on the use of titles of nobility, we will modify the bill accordingly. |

| Message | The KDP is against the measure, but instead believes that more restrictions should be placed on becoming a noble. A complete ban is imprudent. |
