| Message | Madam Speaker Our party originally proposed the military be fully privatised but have since come to regret this decision. The lack of a co-ordinated policy has led to the quality of our armed forces diminishing. We will fully support each of these articles as a strong military is something we strongly believe in. We have also reason to believe there are external threats to our nation both home and abroad. We will sleep more soundly knowing our world class intelligence agencies are fully equipped to do whatever is necessary. |

| Message | Madam Speaker, Article 1 is highly objectionable. We are happy to consider and support Articles 2 & 3. |

| Message | Madam Speaker, in opposing article 1 the Liberals again show their desire, along with the radicals in the NPP, of turning the nation into mindless minions with no morality, to do their bidding. |
