GOVERNMENTS
           DEPT & AGENCIES

       " Government is too big and too important
       to be left to the politicians !"
                                  Charles Bowles
                                    (1901 - 1986)

This section has been designed to allow you quick access to many Australian Government Departments and Agencies.
We also provide you with a large number of e-mail addresses for Federal Government Senators and Ministers. Use these addresses to voice your opinions or give praise whenever appropriate. Each and every Government needs feedback from the electorate to formulate policies and assist them to make the correct decisions on our behalf. If you just sit back and don't tell your local MP what you like to see changed or instigated, then you should not complain later when nothing has happened.
Your voice and vote is paramount for politicians to stay in Parliament, and quite often a brief letter or e-mail with facts and figures can work wonders. You really would not believe it, but we have seen it first hand and can't deny the facts.
Politicians and Bureaucrats are our PUBLIC SERVANTS, if they do not wish to serve the public, then they should get out of politics immediately and make way for better qualified representatives! We can not afford to pay useless and wasteful MP's the salaries and benefits they have given themselves, and hence we will have no other options but to vote with our feet at election times.
The general public must come first, not the politicians and their lackeys !

Please tell us if you have any complaints or suggestions which could assist us, the taxpayer, in the long run. We are expecting a flood of input from most of our visitors. Once we have digested and sorted your submissions, we will probably ask you to write a letter or two to Canberra explaining our feelings.

It really is important to bear in mind this simple fact:
" United we stand, divided we fall!"

Please e-mail all your comments.
