REC anglers concerned about the push for large marine parks in WA have the rare chance to voice their views to Prime Minister Julia Gillard and her Cabinet colleagues this Wednesday, March 30.
When: 5pm, Wednesday March 30.
Where: South Fremantle Senior High School,
Lefroy Street, Beaconsfield.
The PM’s Cabinet is holding a community forum in Fremantle on Wednesday afternoon and recreational fishing representatives were unable to secure access to the meeting.
It is expected that conservation groups plan to use the forum to pressure the Government on marine parks, with some major announcements expected shortly.
Concerned anglers have the opportunity to show their feelings on the issue by gathering outside the venue in a show of solidarity for the 600,000 or so recreational fishers in this state. Wear fishing clothes, bring fishing rods and maybe even tow your boat along,
the most important thing is that we show recreational anglers care.
Anglers will gather at South Fremantle High School in Beaconsfield at 5pm on Wednesday.
