Science leads me to your headquarters again. Since i have seen the new technology, The Cloaking Device, in your fleet, i wanted to request an allowence for it. I am aware of the Liberty Law and that i have to ask The Primary Fleet for its mounting.
I would need this delicate decive for my researching in the dangerous areas of Sirius like the Omegas or Omicrons. Plus, the value of the cargo i have onboard my Research Liner will be even more safe and protected from accidents, caused by violence of thirds. I have many people in Liberty who will sure you that i do not use it for unlawful actions.

We cannot grant permission for the possession of a cloak before the laws regarding this matter have been finalised. We wont attempt to take it away from you either, unless you pose a threat to the Republic of Liberty in some way. I doubt that's easy to do in a Liner though.
What I can say is that the likelihood is that cloaks will be made illegal for all civilians, and legal for the police and military, without a mechanism for exceptions. Don't take my word for it as I'm not a politician, but don't hold on to hope either.
If the law is finalised in a way that does not allow you to have a cloak on board your ship, you may have to purchase another ship without a cloak in order to traverse the territories protected by Liberty. As your primary reason is that it is needed for your journeys through the Omicrons and Omegas, this should not be too much of an issue.
thank you for your fast reply.
After reading your message about the unsure statement of law mattering cloaks, i guess it is the best to wait until it is clear what is legal and illegal about this new technology device...
