| Message | Mr Speaker. The Conservative Democrats are in favor of this proposal. Futhermore, we would suggest the idea of raising it to 21 combined with the removal of civilian national service; however, we accept the current proposal as outlined by the Minister of Education. Luca Brankic Conservative Democratic Union Lodamun |
| Date | 14:58:03, July 18, 2018 CET | From | Republican Party | To | Debating the Reasonable Education Act |
| Message | Mr Speaker, We do not see the benefit in forcing 16 year olds to remain in education when they may be better suited to hands on apprenticeships and other forms of work. Academic routes of development are not suitable for all. Francis Young Leader of the Republicans |
| Date | 15:01:15, July 18, 2018 CET | From | Secular Humanist Party | To | Debating the Reasonable Education Act |
| Message | Mr. Speaker, Apprenticeships can be considered education as well. This law would not prevent that. Caroline Taggart, Minister of Education and Culture |
| Date | 18:35:23, July 18, 2018 CET | From | Progressive Socialist Party | To | Debating the Reasonable Education Act |
| Message | Mr. Speaker, The PSP agrees with the SHP that these extra years can promote Lodamun as a knowledge economy, and to strive for a better educated populace. The PSP will support this bill. Phileus Grant PSP Spokesperson on Education |
