Bill: Miscellaneous Legislation Reforms
Details
Submitted by[?]: Social Liberal Party
Status[?]: passed
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: August 2213
Description[?]:
| These are just a few of the reforms the Social Liberal Party wish to help implement. Although we are a party that are committed to allowing our citizens a great amount of personal freedom, we realise certain legislation must be adhered to in order to establish a truly free and just society. The current legislation pertaining to adoption policy is far too relaxed, allowing people already known to harbour violent or sexual urges relating to children the right to adopt. The danger in which these children are placed is alarming, to say the least, and must cease immediately. |
