Concerns were raised regarding the future needs

in public rights.
Several members of the option4 team met with
a group of concerned businessmen several weeks ago who may be able
to assist financially with attaining such a lawyer.

the details of the amount of time and estimated costs for the constitutional
lawyer.

for the option4 group to continue to receive donations and funding

for the 4 principles of option4. The option4 group will
need financial support in order to ensure it can travel to Wellington
when necessary to address both the Rights Working Group and the
Minister of Fisheries and to enliist the aide of a constitutional
