Newsflash -
Submission Closure Date Extended!!!
The Ministry of
Fisheries, in their wisdom, have extended the deadline for
submissions out to December 20th. see https://www.fish.govt.nz/current/press/pr201100.htm
Submission
Books
We would like to
thank all of those supporters who have already requested the Option4
Submission booklets and gone out there to assist people to make
their submission - great effort from you all! Keep up the good work.
Every Submission counts.
For those of you
who not yet requested submission books, we would encourage you to do
so. Do not think that we expect you to fill up each submission book.
Remember, if you were to assist 10 or 12 people to make their
submission, this makes a difference.
To have 1 or
more booklets mailed to you immediately please go here www.option4.co.nz/submission.htm
Get out to all the organizations and sports clubs to tell
them what is going on and help their members to make their
submissions. Persuade their management committees to put submission
books where they are prominent and visible - on the bar counter and
in the lobbies on a table. Get out there and make it happen. This is
a fight for our fundamental human rights - do not drop the ball on
this one.
Kiwi
Expats
Thank you to all
those expatriate Kiwis in Australia, UK, Europe, USA, South East
Asia, Africa and the Middle East who have made submissions through
the Option4 website. We are really in your hands in terms of
connecting with other expat Kiwis. Please, where you can, contact
and connect with other expats and help them to make their
submissions.
For those of you
resident in NZ with family, friends and business colleagues living
and working overseas, email them and encourage them to go to your
website to make their submissions. Bring it on expats! You do
not want to be coming back to retire in NZ to discover the
unthinkable i.e. holding a weak right with a diminishing access to
our fisheries. (Remember the TV add - "Granddad, what did you do to
stop it?")
Bumper
Stickers
Bumper stickers
are also available to promote community awareness and to raise
funds to sustain this initiative. You can order them from your
website. www.option4.co.nz/order.htm
Keep up the
good work!
Kind regards
Option4 |
