Re: [ozmidwifery] Make the PM support NMAP

[alastair tawns]

Dear Denise , I have already e-mailed all the members of the house of representatives and senators. In addition I have written to all members of relevant committees ...health, women's issues etc. As for JH , the best way to e-mail him is as you have done ..I think (!) i.e. via www.pm.gov.au  It would be great if folk did e-mail as many ministers as they feel able just to keep the issue in the consciousness. Re getting any money , I honestly think our best bet would be from the private health funds...think of all the money they would be saved if they weren't shelling out for all these unnecessary interventions ! cheers Mel ----- Original Message ----- From: Denise Hynd To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, September 09, 2002 8:59 AM Subject: [ozmidwifery] Make the PM support NMAP Dear All Does any one have an e-mail address for John Howard?   We need to bombard him, SC, ML & BB with requests to support !!  I have sent the e-mail below via his site feedback boxes at http://www.pm.gov.au/your_feedback/feedback.htm   and the Copies to meg lees [EMAIL PROTECTED] <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>    Simon Crean [EMAIL PROTECTED] <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>   and bob Brown [EMAIL PROTECTED] <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>   at their e-mail addresses as above     Subject: Support women's Birth Choices Dear John Howard I commend your public verbal and financial support of women's right to choices regarding career and family options (Sydney Morning Herald; 7th September 2002).   Now it is time to give financial support to the consumer driven National Maternity Action Plan (www.communitymidwifery.iinet.net.au/nmapcampaign) to give all women access to positive, cost effective choices in birthing which will benefit families!
