"During the next few months, the Reference Group will be meeting with 
representatives from relevant peak organisations. It is also seeking the 
views of interested groups and the broader community. If you or your 
organisation would like to make a contribution on this important issue, 
please send your written submission to:
Welfare Reform Review

Note: I hope that as many people as possible will contribute with 
submissions to ensure that we end up with a fair system, and not a cost 
cutting exercise.
