In case the citizen requesting the loan is CP, MoF, MU Commander or some combination of these, congress needs to vote for the plan.
This program is a privilege and not a right. Participation in this program cannot under any circumstances be assumed as a right. No reason has to be given to refuse a loan.
Loans will not be given if the committee finds possible unreliability of the citizen requesting the loan, a pay back plan that is not feasible, or inefficient use of the funds.
