| Message | The RNPP Cannot fathom the reasons which this parliament votes no to this bill. the silence of our fellow parties seems suspicious, perhaps its a lobbyist issue? ~Paul Wolfe |

| Message | This is not a lobbyist issue. The RRP votes no because we have a laissez-faire stance when it comes to agricultural regulations. We do not support banning GM crops, as they have proven to be more beneficial than harmful. |

In particular, please bear in mind that a player who is inexperienced with Particracy role-play and has joined a nation as the only party there should not generally be expected to abide by RP laws implemented by previous players who have been and left. |
