| Party | Seats | Vote | Reason |
|---|---|---|---|
| Anarchist Association | 0 | Abstain | We do not think this project is central |
| Belvarian Peoples Union | 17 | Yes | Although we do understand some concerns that such ID cards may be an invasion of their privacy we do think that these cards are needed to ensure national security and proper identification for citizens |
| Freedom For Us | 17 | No | Article XI, Section 1 of the Constitution establishes a right to privacy; the proposed mandatory issuance constitutes a prima facie violation of this provision. Upon further analysis of whether the limitation in Section 4 is applicable to this case, the conclusion is negative. Alternative documentation—such as a passport or driving licence-is available for identification purposes. The card in question is not necessary for the prevention or investigation of crime. Therefore, to defend freedom, we vote against this bill. |
