Let theM know


Once again, our sport is in the spotlight after the tragic events at Monash University where a licenced pistol shooter killed two people and wounded five others. As mentioned on the news page, now would be a great time to phone, visit, fax, write or E-Mail your local member and newspaper.

There is a Police Minister's Council meeting very soon where changes to firearms laws will be discussed. Please let the politicians know how you feel. Please do it politely and do not get emotional. Below are some contact details for delegates at the meeting.
