United in Work, Together We Drive Progress: Turning the Gears of Industry!
The Vending Machine Regulation Act was submitted, passed, and implemented two years ago, as the vending machines within the sphere of City Twenty-four were not regulated and the regulation itself was difficult to obtain. Some of the issues included the sale of luxury items, strange and exotic meats, etc. As a result of such actions, the economy and storefronts were greatly affected and required intervention before they could get worse.
During the present day, the machines still follow the regulations set forth in the Vending Machine Regulation Act however, further amendments need to be made to the Regulation Act so that the machines are only used when needed, and to encourage people to purchase from shops.
This new legislation will set up an updated guideline and properly list what can and can't be done with vending machines, including some excerpts from the original Vending Machine Regulation Act.

Clause Three: Types of Vending Machines
- Clause 3.1: Currently, vending machines are allowed to sell a variety of products, including drinks, and request devices from a singular machine. This brings up the issue of how clean the machines are, as there are varying products contained within. As such, there will be two types of vending machines offered to potential vendors.
Clause 3.2: Drinks Vending Machine: This machine will only be allowed to sell Drinks with an alcoholic or non-Alcoholic Permit
Clause 3.3: Cigarette Vending Machine: This machine will only be allowed to sell Cigarettes, Lighters and Request Devices
Clause Four: Enforcement
(Taken from the Vending Machine Regulation Act)
Clause 4.1: If misconduct is to be noticed and enforced by the Civil Workers’ Union, the organization will ensure that vending machines that breach the trust given to them will receive a warning. If action is not taken by the purchaser of the machine, it will be removed. The fines for retrieving your machine can be found on the Civil Workers Union Public Price Page

Clause Five: Pricing
(Taken from the Vending Machine Regulation Act)
Clause 5.1: Vending machine owners have the luxury of selecting their own prices, however, this has led to the case where, for example; water is being sold at 3 credits, the price you purchase it from the permit system. This drives other people out of business and is simply unfair. However, selling for too much is also unfair, citizens must be able to afford their drinks and other items.
As a result, any items that are sold in either vending machine that are noted in Clause 3.2 or 3.3 must be sold for 5 Credits more then the base permit price of said item in question
Clause 5.2: The Civil Workers Union has noted many inactive vending machines throughout City Twenty Four and Industrial Twenty Four. As a result, a service fee has to be implemented to prevent the uptick in inactive vending machines, along with servicing if such machines break down during the course of their use.
The service fee is located on the Civil Workers Union Public Price Page. The service fee is subject to change with or without notice to the respective parties
Clause 5.2: Currently, vending machines are priced at two hundred credits. This has been established since the inception of such machines being brought into City Twenty Four. Given the current demands of such machines throughout the city, along with Industrial Twenty Four. The purchase price is subject to change at the discretion of the Civil Workers Union. The Price is located within the Civil Workers Union Public Price Page
