Clack, clack, clack. The sound of a cane hitting the hard floor as it announced the arrival of Amiral Félix Léandre. A survivor of war, blinded in his right eye and suffering from a seemingly permanent limp. Félix made his way into the chamber to be seated in his designated chair. The Amiral firstly listened to the concerns of de Bersaillin and smiled as he believed he had just the right solution.
Honorable friends,
I for one agree with the need to increase the our food production to meet the needs of the Gallic people. Planet New Orleans is one such Eden that can feed the whole of Gallia!
Unfortunately, the wars both domestic and foreign have demanded much from the planet. Future farmers were taken from their fields to fill the ranks of the militaries of Gallia all the while the demand on Orleans for the food stuff and drinks it produces have only sky rocketed.
I am confident with further investment into agricultural production, and allowance of soldiers from Orleans to return home, that we can meet the current and future needs of Gallia.
Furthermore, I believe it goes without saying that we should seek to rebuild our military infrastructure to not only replace but reinforce our inventory since its depletion from the wars. The reconstruction of Fourchambault Shipyard should be one of our foremost priorities, although I am not against the conversion of Briancon Station. I have it in my understanding this station is important to the clean-up of debris left over from Kusari's incursion. I believe this station would then be unable to fulfill the immediate need of a conversion into a shipyard. Not to mention the security concerns with its location when considering the ability of a determined enemy.
