[Fares_Fair]

Hello All,

I have invited Hon. Andrew Powell MP, Member for Glass House to the Nambour Information Session on Saturday 4th December, and he has accepted.
I can also confirm that Hon. Mark McArdle MP, Member for Caloundra will also be in attendance at the meeting.

The Hon. Andrew Powell MP, has written to the Hon. Rachel Nolan MP, Member for Ipswich and the Minister for Transport about our concerns over the timetable and it's impacts on Sunshine Coast commuters.

The Hon. Fiona Simpson MP, Member for Maroochydore is unable to attend on the day and sends her apology.
She has also written to the Hon. Rachel Nolan MP, Member for Ipswich and the Minister for Transport about our concerns over the timetable and it's impacts on Sunshine Coast commuters and will forward on the reply.

I can also announce that another elected representative, Ms Tracey Davis MP, Member for Aspley will also now be attending the information session.
Ms Davis is the new Shadow Minister for Public Transport.

All these Sunshine Coast MP's have expressed their concern for Sunshine Coast commuters adversely affected by the draft 2011 timetable.
We are sincerely grateful for their support.

Signed on behalf of Sunshine Coast commuters adversely affected by this reprehensible timetable.

What:  Information Session for Draft 2011 Sunshine Coast Timetable
Where: Nambour Community Centre, Cnr. James St. and Shearer St. Nambour.
Date:   Saturday 4th December, 2010.
Time    10:00am to 12:00pm

Regards,
Fares_Fair.

Perhaps both these members could persuade Ms Davis, the new shadow minister, to attend.  At least she would be across an important issue that she may have to deal with in government.  And that may be only 15 months away.

How to tell if the opposition is getting close to being "on topic & relevant": the Government will put out a press release attacking the specific member who made a salient comment!

A perusal of archived ministerial media statements over the last 10 or 15 years shows Government tactics becoming increasingly grubby, with more and more misuse of Government media releases.

Not that I expect the other mob would be any different if/when they win power.
