Speakers available - Overseas Investment Bill

From the Campaign Against Foreign Control of Aotearoa:
To our members and supporters,

The Overseas Investment Bill has been introduced into Parliament. It is important to note that this is not an amendment, it is a new Bill which will supersede all previous legislation on the subject.

If you are planning a public or private meeting about it, or would like someone to talk about it at one of your regular meetings, CAFCA may be able to supply a speaker.

We would require reasonable notice. If it's a meeting outside Christchurch, a contribution to travel costs would be appreciated. A place to stay (if an overnight stay is required), and local transport, would be the only other requirements.

We don't as yet know when this Bill will have its First Reading, to which Select Committee it will be referred, nor the deadline for submissions. But the process to make it law is well underway, so CAFCA wants as many people as possible to be made aware of it and mobilised against it.

If you're interested in a CAFCA speaker, contact us.
