| Message | Anastasio Balotelli, ULD Vice-Chair and Deputies Leader We are afraid that this bill would reduce the freedom of speech within the chambers, something very typical of you leftists to want to do, as so often you get hurt by the truth that you want to stuff the mouths of those that speak it. |

| Message | Giacomo Tancredi, Whip of AR: "Sorry, but about the free of speech for our MPs, we have to agree with the collegues of ULD. The conseguences would be serious and dangerous. It could generate veritable "persecutions" by part of the Justice, citizens as well as other MPs could be able to sue political opponents for this or that speech,maybe with the help of magistrates and judges, who, we remark it, in Istalia are organized and have the right to organize themself in unions, like any workers, and... Fiind me an union not at all politicizated. It is a risk for the health of our democracy. " |

| Message | Beatrice Grande, Whip of the PLI: It seems to me that the ULD has not fully understood the intentions that this P.d.I. intends to change in national legislation. We simply want an MP, when he is wrong and breaking the law, to take responsibility for his actions. This P.d.I. doesn't affect our democracy and MP's freedom of speech. |

| Message | Anastasio Balotelli, ULD: It seems to me that the PLI does not understand their bill and that their MPs are not competent enough to serve. This bill very clearly attacks our freedom of speech. |
