| Message | Mr Speaker, We applaud the National Party for bringing forward this bill. This will ensure Hutorians are put first and that only the most qualified immigrants are coming into our country. We will support it. Rt. Hon. Steve Taylor MP for Glentingham East Leader of the Hutori First Party |

| Message | Mr Speaker, The Liberal Party supports this bill. The reality is that we must put our own citizens first and above foreign nationals seeking employment here. While we support foreign workers in our country, we must ensure we look after our own backyard, before bringing others to Hutori.

| Random fact: It usually takes up to an hour for election results to generate. During this time, the "Next Election" date is put forward a month, which is confusing. Do not worry! In a short time, the election result will generate and the "Next Election" date will then correct itself. |
