| Message | Silvio Astano, deputy-leader of AR: "Mr Speaker, it is really funny, or sad, to see the greatest contradiction of this bill which, however, is also the greater contradition of the so called "liberal" parties. You want to liberalize all, ok? Ok... but... at the same time, the last article impose a ban for any form of alternative way to run a company. The company and their owners should be free to do whatever they want, but it is not possible to run a company whatever the owner they want, even if they desire to open a comanagement with the employees. It is a classic... those who want to be "more" free than the others!" |

| Message | Francesca Vespa-Baldassare, ULD We believe that DWCs should be permitted; obviously, they curb businesses, but not allowing them is naturally illiberal, as liberalism is based on freedom, and economic liberalism is based on economic freedom of everyone, not only the employers. Nonetheless, we will support this bill, as, if it would pass, it would introduce very positive changes. |

| Message | Mr. Astano made a great point criticizing this bill. This bill would deleted every Istalian value. In facts, this bill would bring total hell inside Istalia. This bill is dangerous for everyone; we vote no. - Gioia Garofani, PdSI General secretary |
