| Message | In a rare break with the party line, the Social Liberal caucus of the UDP votes no against this bill, citing Article 3, in that it immediately does not respect the Foreign Policy Reform Act of last year. If Articles 1 & 2 were proposed separately, then we would support such legislation. |

| Message | We agree with the social liberal caucus on article 3 |
