TIRALLE - The Interior Minister, Margaux Vasseur, confirmed that the Government is taking steps towards the elimination of paramilitaries, calling them 'a fundamental threat to the integrity of the nation'. The draft bill, created and sponsored by the Defence minister, is currently sitting in debate in a parliamentary committee, and is expected to be put to vote in the next months, PLS's parliamentary leader Étienne Rocheteau said. If passed by the Provisional National Assembly, the act would ban the creation, operations, financing, recruitment of a paramilitary organization, allowing the Republic to 'intervene freely' to stop them.

Minister Vasseur, when pressed if the Government will wait until the One Army Act is passed before calling early elections: "it is the intention of this government to lead the country to new elections to be held under the new constitution and under the new basic laws that will strengthen the rule of law in Rildanor. The 'One Army Act' is part of those basic laws." She has also added that she 'regrets' the FN being opposed to the Act, hoping that they "will change idea for the good of the Republic".
