Bill: Second Ecological Act 2209

Status[?]: defeated
Votes: This is an ordinary bill. It requires more yes votes than no votes. This bill will not pass any sooner than the deadline.
Voting deadline: February 2210
Description[?]:
The essential thing here is that parties must give up being unitarist and devolutionist just for once, and concentrate on the environment. This act may have unitarist elements, but that is because the environment is an important thing, and it should not be left in the hands of local governments in some areas. |
