Insufficient data.

The main opponent is the Reform Party government, which is accused of deepening the economic crisis, creating poverty, and failing in both social and criminal policy. The criticism is intense and policy-driven, linking the government's actions (raising taxes, cutting family benefits) directly to the rise in crime. The government is also criticized for increasing the administrative burden and churning out flawed legislation.

Neither criticism nor opposition is voiced; the focus is on explaining the substance of the draft bill and concisely recalling the changes that are significant from the local government's perspective.

The primary targets of criticism are the Prime Minister and the government (the Reform Party), who are accused of failing to address the road maintenance debt and energy capacity issues. The criticism is policy-based and procedural, highlighting the illogical planning of services (ferry traffic) and the avoidance of ministerial responsibility.
