This step indicates the parliamentary group's strategic opposition to the bill's rapid processing, but their specific substantive position regarding the Bill on Amendments to the Identity Documents Act (256 SE) remains unknown.

Opposition Stance
There is no direct criticism or naming of opponents, but the procedural step (taking a recess) suggests strategic opposition to the rapid adoption of the draft legislation. The opposition targets the pace and timing of the proceedings, rather than the substance of the policy itself.

Collaboration Style
