| Date | 18:33:47, April 06, 2021 CET | From | Republican Party (RP) | To | Debating the Religious Regulation Act |
| Message | The Republican Party feels that this would hand too much power to central government to interfere in the religious lives of free citizens. Therefore as this does not encourage a secularist separation of Church and State but specially encourages the State to exercise control over religion we cannot support. |
