| Date | 21:59:29, May 25, 2018 CET | From | Green Progressive Alliance [PAG] | To | Debating the Health Reform Act 4398 |
| Message | We see this Bill as an agressive attack on our citizens. We will NEVER stand for such crimes against humanity as this Bill proposes. |
| Date | 22:00:13, May 25, 2018 CET | From | Striving for Gaduridos [PAG] | To | Debating the Health Reform Act 4398 |
| Message | In this case, SfG agrees with GPA. It's agressive and not fair towards our citizens. |
| Date | 22:31:02, May 25, 2018 CET | From | NLP | To | Debating the Health Reform Act 4398 |
| Message | The NLP would support measures of devolution, but we have to agree with the SfG and the GPA here. Detainment without just cause is something the NLP will continue to stand against. |
| Date | 22:33:00, May 25, 2018 CET | From | Republican New Movement | To | Debating the Health Reform Act 4398 |
| Message | Perhaps the parties that are railing against this bill would care to point out where they see on attack on our citizens? In many cases we are returning decisions to the states where they belong? We are ensuring that the waiting list for organ donations is reduced? We are returning vaccination choice to parents and not the Government? Perhaps the parties should explain to their constituents how this is an attack. |
| Date | 23:04:47, May 25, 2018 CET | From | NLP | To | Debating the Health Reform Act 4398 |
| Message | We agree with devolution to states - bill proposed for that. However, the issue is that of the unlawful detainment of citizens. Compulsory organ donation is also an attack - are they the organs of the person, or of the state? And why should IVF be limited to those who are married? Perhaps the RNM should explain to those dying and who wish to be buried whole, or those couples who are not married, or simply formerly married, as to why IVFs should not be available to them! If you support devolution to states, the NLP has proposed a bill for that, and we will work with you on that. However, the rest is an attack on the rights of the citizen. |
| Date | 23:24:01, May 25, 2018 CET | From | Golden Legion of Gaduridos [CAG] | To | Debating the Health Reform Act 4398 |
| Message | We will be voting yes on this bill but we believe it does not go far enough to combat the moral decay of our society. |
| Date | 06:08:20, May 26, 2018 CET | From | Progressive Conservative Party | To | Debating the Health Reform Act 4398 |
| Message | PCP shares the concerns expressed by the GPA, SfG, and NLP regarding the detainment of citizens without cause. It is a blantant abuse of human rights. Laura Esposito PCP Parliamentary Spokesperson |
