Thrown out in favor of nations passing own legislation without interference by Federation Council.

I'm afraid Tinis must vote no on this motion. For two reasons. First off it is my nations belief that liberty is best protect in our own nation if all its members are free from mind alterting substances, and as such, this resolution would infringe on my nation's ability to govern its self in this matter. The other reason being that the resolution put forward is incomplete as to a definition of catnip and fails to describe what the legalization of it would entail. Legalization as in it is legal to posses it? Legal to use it? Legal to process it? In Tinis it is illegal for citizens to posses or use it, but it is legal for the government to harvest certain chemicals from the catnip plant for industrial uses. In that case, would this resolution force a change in any of these areas or would one of the three be enough to handle it?

*ahem* Yes, perhaps this should be taken a little more seriously. I'll get to work writing up some guide lines , and any opinions and input on this topic will be apriciated.

Question for Tinis, is beer or other intoxicating drinks legal in your country?

Beer and alcoholic drinks are legal but there are a number of restrictions on it against alchol use by minors, by members of the government while on duty/in session, while at work, or during the 48 hours upto and during an elections. The last one is hard to enforce but poll workers who smell alcohol on the breath of a fur going to vote can request that they take a breathalizer before participating. If they fail the breathalizer they can be subject to legal ramifications.
Harder toxins and such are controlled much more turoughly and a good number are outlawed completely. And woe to those who come to the polls obviously in a manic state induced by such things as crack cocain.

*Ahems some as he just tries to understand why anyone would want to legalize such a drug*
"Me and my people have decided to vote no to such a drug, as stated by tinis this will greatly affect my people in unknown ways....has anyone even tested this to see what harm it would do to the draconic people within the federation?...I say more testing must be used before any other drug is considered for legalization..."

The Dominion of Baradun recognizes that catnip is not a particularely harmfull substance.
However, as smoking it would cause halucinations that particular method of using it, along with ingestion, is illegal, although the penalties are low if the user attempts to do nothing else while engaged in such an act.
Catnip must also be grown in its wild form and not altered to increase potency or purity in any ways, shape or form.
