[QUOTE="NAPFA, post: 352003, member: 2301"] It has been great, but not all surprising, to see such an active response from fossickers on this sluicing matter. THANK YOU! :Y: NAPFA notes that various suggestions are being put forward to protest against this unreasonable policy and to seek to have it fixed. These range from letters and petitions to rallies and media activity. While individuals are free to undertake their own campaigns, at this stage, our view is to leave it with NAPFA as we are in dialogue with both Planning, Environment, Resources and Energy (PERE) and the Resources Regulator on how to get a fair and reasonable outcome for fossickers. If you have not done so already, I would urge you to read our [b]May 2017 Sluicing Report[/b] [url]http://www.napfa.net/upload/NAPFA%20Regulation%20Changes%20to%20DRE%202017%20%20Final%20.pdf[/url] because it provides a comprehensive review on the current policy, why it needs to change and how it needs to change. It is possible that you wont agree with all of it, but I can assure you we have consulted at length within the fossicking community, and with manufacturers, in arriving at our final position. We have an important meeting next week with PERE where we hope that resolution of this issue can be fast-tracked. Our immediate goal is to prepare for that meeting. Depending on what comes out of the meeting, then we may well seek to rally fossickers and sluicers from all corners of NSW and elsewhere in a strategic communications campaign aimed at overturning this unfair and flawed regulation. If you are not already a NAPFA member, please get on board as a member and support the organisation that is supporting your fossicking interests.
