Bill: National Anthem Bill 4744
Details
Submitted by[?]: Beluzia Renewal Party (BRP)
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: February 4745
Description[?]:
| The BRP asserts that: a. If the National Anthem is never sung in schools then our youth will not grow up with the same feeling of nationalistic pride which the majority of our citizens feel. b. If children are forced to sing the National Anthem on a daily basis, it becomes merely a ritual which loses its meaning. c. The happy medium is to expect schools to sing the anthem on special occasions. d. If any party has a problem with schools being expected to sing our anthem on special occasions, then the BRP would question what they are doing attempting to represent our patriotic citizens in this Parliament? |

| Message | Incidentally, for those parties who would wish the anthem to be sung more regularly, the proposed policy does not prevent schools from doing so - it only stipulates the bare minimum of commitment to engendering national pride. |
