The Defence Minister, Kasala Gri announced a legislative initiative to enacte a "civil service" consisting of either military service or of community service. The civil service would be compulsory for citizens aged 18 for 11 months. Should the initiative pass the Sænat, there would be 6 months of enactment time giving time for the military and the community service centres to get ready. Should this law pass, defence ministry is expecting around 250 000 new people in the military and around 350 000 in the community service, after a survey showed that 58,33% would prefere community service.
