Film and Publications Board Submissions Due

Sent a response earlier and got a few other people to respond as well.

Still can't believe what they are "trying" to achieve.
 
As with e-tolls just another pointless issue of going through the public participation motions (which will be ignored) so that in a year's time when everyone is baying for blood they can turn around and say, "Oh but we consulted the public". The fact that the public almost unanimously objects never seems to be relevant.
 
Just a reminder to everybody. 16h00 today is the cut off time for the submissions on public participation for the Film and Publication Boards current move to control the Internet (they will be unsuccessful and make this country look stupid, but in their failure a lot of other things could go horribly wrong). Please do send them written inputs - by email:

even if your email just says

Dear Film and Publications Board
Please stop being stupid and trying to regulate things that you clearly don't understand
Yours Sincerely

Or to be a little more in the "constructive criticism" vain

Dear Film and Publications Board
I am writing to add my voice on proposed Online Content Regulations as invited by Notice 182 of 2015 appearing in the Government Gazette. It is my respectful submission that the proposed regulations are irrational and unimplementable. Further I am gravely concerned that written public comment is closed on a date before the final public workshop/hearing event and submit that this is indicative of the fact that there is no intention to have proper public participation.
Kind Regards

- a bit of a BTW: thedti found themselves drowning in negative comment formally received on the business licensing bill

I have done it, used your 2n'd suggestion but my subject line was

Idiocracy of Notice 182 of 2015...
