Voting record
Every vote must state a public reason. Most recent first.
“We approve of this measure to increase classroom performance”
“Phones in school are a major distraction for students and gets in he way of their learning, we emphatically support this bill.”
“We think that schools are for learning and not for phones!”
“we previously voted in favour of this law”
“We must vote no. Unless we relax other things such as Security of our Nation this change in laws is UNACCEPTABLE. Banning the use of phones will make things worse. I urge my fellow Parliamentarians to VOTE NO.”
