| Message | "Mr Speaker, If this bill passes, I will resign from my position as the Minister of Internal affairs, effective immediately. I cannot stand the fact that our coalition partners would reverse our achievements for restricting harmful substances for children. If the greed of the SPoK for tobacco and alcohol sales surpasses the health and wellbeing of our children, I simply refuse to work with them in government." - Alex Griffin, Internal Affairs |
