| Message | The Free Republic of Jelbania is currently running a surplus. This is the time to use those resources to invest in our communities. |
| Date | 23:05:26, April 03, 2006 CET | From | Free Conservative Party | To | Debating the Budget Proposal of November 2209 |
| Message | Have you considered that we could lower taxes with that surplus? Frankly, I do not like any of it. |
| Date | 23:16:39, April 03, 2006 CET | From | Jelbék Zemojad Lofrkad Prta | To | Debating the Budget Proposal of November 2209 |
| Message | The DLP approves of this budget. |
| Date | 23:18:26, April 03, 2006 CET | From | Jelbék Zemojad Lofrkad Prta | To | Debating the Budget Proposal of November 2209 |
| Message | Although the DLP would suggest a one or two extra million JEL being allocated to the Justice department, due to the increased costs that will exist whilst the new regional level police departments are being set up. This need only be temporary. |
| Date | 00:24:18, April 05, 2006 CET | From | Centre Démocratique | To | Debating the Budget Proposal of November 2209 |
| Message | This budget can be changed later. This is a good start. Next is a tax bill. |
