[QUOTE="Goldtarget, post: 148173, member: 2152"] Just to add the greens candidate was Jenny O'Connor. She's thrown her hat in the ring a few times as a political candidate on several platforms (read would get into power any means available) and made a totally misinformed statement about sluicing in a news report about the ban put forward in the Veac report on television at the time. She continued to bury herself (defend what she said) on social media. As meta pointed out above the pmav never really tackled this head on. I urge anyone concerned to read the Veac report. A change in state government sees this buried but only for now. I've left this issue alone since the previous government did not put it into legislation, no point single handedly stirring up a sleeping lion. I have written to the relevant ministers personally for very little substance in reply. Unfortunately the public/green pressure will eventually ensure this is brought to light again. In the meantime I can only advocate some data gathering to strengthen the cause, informed numbers hold sway, Just ask the deer hunters. Good luck out there gents enjoy your freedoms while they are still about, dodging a bullet comes to mind. [/QUOTE]
