[Peakoil-announce] Federal budget submission

[Alex Pollard]

Hi folks,

The Treasurer Wayne Swan has called for submissions regarding the coming budget.

http://www.aspo-australia.org.au/latest/swan-calls-for-budget-submissions.html

ACT Peak Oil will be making a submission. Please send any ideas you have by
Jan 9 to Jenny Goldie <jgoldie at snowy.net.au> and myself at
alex-po at trevbus.org, or reply to this message to send an email to the
discussion list.

It would be nice to see our Senate oil inquiry submission put into action:

eg Just abolishing the FBT concession for car use would save taxpayers $1
billion annually - or it could be spent on sustainable transport infrastructure.

Cheers,

Alex
