Hi Stephen.
I plan to attend the meeting this Monday. There may be half a dozen other motorcyclist AA members with me. It will all be very friendly. :-)
Anyway, I'd like 5 minutes to address the Auckland District Council in the general section of the business to speak about ACC and pre-funding, how it affects all motorists, and to request their consideration and support for a return to the original Woodhouse principles.
3 of the AA districts are supporting a return to the original Woodhouse principles, and I would like the Auckland District to join those ranks. I've spoken with Mike Moon and Mark Stockdale on the issue, and they are investigating it further at this point in time, but the more Districts that make noise about this matter the better.
Half a dozen motorcyclists will be attending, as motorcyclists initially wore most of the press on the issue. But as I said, this is an issue for all road users, and I'll be speaking to the council from that viewpoint.
