Description[?]:
| After reviewing interesting ideas of other nations, HPP wanna create a dress code concerning employees in the state and for them who have a public function. They should no longer have the right to wear religous clothing. They represent the state and sould be totally neutral while doing their duty. As political independence is creved, as should religious independence. In all other cases, the choosing of clothes is completely voluntary, respecting other laws on this matter. |

| Message | We support. Government and religion must remain seperate at all levels and having Government officials not wear religious symbols when they are exercising their duties makes sense. This chnage would not stop them being involved in any religions, nor does it stop them from wearing religious clothing when they are not at work. |

| Message | I don't like this. This would remove any members of religions who wish to always wear religious clothing from working for the government. This law is extreme to the point it would stop, for example, a CSP MP from wearing even a small crucifix to work. |
