Demographic Concerns
Public Secretary's Summary - ''It is unknown if the previous reports were tabulated incorrectly or if the nation has had a substantial increase in population, but we appear to have regained the 4% of Kodiak lost at the last census. Immigration is basically zero due to the numerous social crises and lack of opportunity. Border crackdowns and visa requirements have kept illegal immigration to basically zero as well. Emigration is increasing but not faster than births. It is still the opinion of the civil service we consider relaxing immigration rules in the medium term.''
