| Message | As revised, we can agree with this bill, although we would have wanted a commensurate cut in income tax for the poorest, if that were possible to move. |

| Message | We throw our votes against this with great regret. We cannot support heightening the age of suffrage, although we agree with both other proposals. |

| Message | This KGP move does not surprise us. Look back to the two bills in 2163 and 2165 - the KGP stood against lowering suffrage age. I hope the CK will continue their line on it. |
