AIMS has had some success with our recent e-mail lobbying campaign at the
Redlands hospital - but final outcome, still to be advised.
I think we should an e-mail lobbying campaign for the insurance issue - but
I'm not sure who the key people to e-mail would be. My initial thoughts
would be Guild CEO, other insurance company CEOs, pollies like Carmen
Lawrence & Natasha S-D, and of course the ACCC.
Can I have suggestions about who you think should be on the receiving end of
our e-mail campaign, and their e-mail address?
Jan R & Joy J, and anyone else with time, can I have a bit of help with
drafting the e-mail message?
Warm regards,
Toni Cannard
