It is also worth sending a letter to your local MP, as well as those pollies
identified by Carl. Many NSW electorates contain national parks and/or
nature reserves, so it would be appropriate to inform your local MP of your
concerns. Although the cynical side of me thinks that most (if not all)
pollies would vote on the bill along party lines, if all of them received
letters of protest from local constituents, then maybe they will better
understand the environmental concerns of the community, rather than just
providing an uninformed parliamentary donkey vote.

Mark et al,
A hand-written letter has much more impact, so if you can spare the
time, that is the way to go. Also letters to the Leader of the
Opposition can some times be more effective than ones to a Minister.
Ministers have lists of "do not disturb' subjects, where letters are
handled by staffers, so that the Minister can in all honesty say "I am
sorry, but that correspondence was not brought to my attention".

Shooters Party in this bill, and what the impact that allowing such a

to pass will mean, I can't see how we can sit back and not at the very
least
send an email to Carmel Tebbutt voicing our concerns that this bill is
not
in the best interests of our native wildlife.
