Just an update for the interested activists to be I am currently reading and digesting all the stuff that the government requires in order to form a legitimate group, which will be a non profit organisation. This might take me a while as there is a lot to read before we can go further. I am hoping to have a sample Mission Statement and constitution up for discussion soon, but can't give you an exact time frame at this point in time.

I presume I have to give my name and address ??? I'd rather not actually .... as I am not the organiser... or the head of an organisation. I am not attending the Rally, coz I can't afford to get to Sydney for it. I am also not a resident of NSW. We don't have an organisation to name in the paperwork.

Respect for national sovereignty is a key concept for Member States of the United Nations. Article 2 (7) of the United Nations Charter states "Nothing contained in the present Charter shall authorize the United Nations to intervene in matters which are essentially within the domestic jurisdiction of any state...". The United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime (UNODC) can recommend and offer guidelines, but it is the prerogative of Member States to formulate national policy.

Summary of responses from the Attorneys…

In addition to being a medical doctor he is the Director of the Alcohol and Drug Service at St. Vincent’s Hospital in Sydney, as well as a board member of the International Harm Reduction Assocation." read the blog for the rest of the info... it is wel…
