Regardless of where you stand on this bill, if you want to have an influence, you need to voice your opinion. You don't need to appear before the committee; a submission can be as simple as a letter saying "I support/oppose this bill" and giving your reasons why. There's a guide here if you need further help.
Surely it should be the Crimes (Abolition of *Child Discipline* as a justification for *Force*) Amendment Bill?
ReplyDeleteYes, it should. Unfortunately, Sue Bradford didn't get the title right, and now we're stuck with it.
ReplyDeleteOops.
ReplyDeleteCan't they amend it?
Eventually - but there's little point, since its an amendment bill.
