Details
Submitted by[?]: Partie Nationale
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: November 5385
Description[?]:
As our situation evolves, we must also do so. We're continuing to deliver almost 10 years after our first election. We consider this to be the next phase of reconciling our economic situation to our spending. We've unleashed 69,850,000 Lourennean Francs of investment and opportunity through our Better Funding Deals and our New Start for Lourenne programme. We must continue forward to ensure that, not only do we keep delivering, but that a new system of ease and convenience for local people to live their lives. Our task is, however, not yet over as we still have so much potential to unlock. As we have always said, a supportive Government is good Government, and we should encourage more decisions to be made in regard to our economy, specifically in how it should benefit local people. We must continue to support not big business or small business, but all businesses. Not one person or.the other, but everyone. We must also apply this to the workplace too, where no-one should enter a job without some sort of legal backing if their employer decides to action. Workers protection must come first in this economy if we want everyone to succeed and for employers to pay fair, reasonable wages. |

With small, limited government, it doesn't much matter who controls it, because it can't do you much harm." - Harry Browne |
