Hi all,
1. I'm not a financial member of SLUG (thus can't vote)
2. I have met Lindsay and agree with everyone's comments about his competence and abilities (he's also a nice guy :)).
3. I work in the internal investigations unit of a large NSW government department.
4. We supervise the licence conditions of thousands of financial and service agreements around the state (many are required by the terms of their agreement to of have a committee).
5. I have had involvement with agencies that have had youth committees.
6. I have sought the opinion of a solicitor that works with me who stated that there is no particular reason that Lindsay cannot be elected as a committee member.
7. I tend to agree with Robert Thorsby - who I have not met and don't know :)
8. This information was not paid for by anyone and the use of firearms and other means of causing bodily harm was not discussed openly by any of the persons who visited my home at 3am this morning :))
I hope this helps to dispel any concerns held by SLUG members regarding the election of a person under the age of 18 years.
