Dear Andrew Stoner,

It seems that fluoridating water supplies contravenes the Fluoridation Act, Crimes Act and Australian Consumer Law 1/1/2011 - according to Justice Biscoe’s ruling on the Oshlack Vs Ballina Council and Rous Water.

Please read the attached Ruling.

I beseech you to intervene in this undemocratic injustice that the Port Macquarie-Hastings Council and the NSW State Government is forcing on the citizens of this area. Please use your power to delay the fluoridating of our water supply, at least until we can have (another) referendum on this issue at the Council elections.

Yours sincerely
 

AND ANOTHER VERSION:

Dear Sir,

As a member of the Port Macquarie - Hastings area, I strongly object to the forcing of medication on to myself and my family.

I remind you of your pre-election promise to conduct a poll on this BEFORE the poison was released into our drinking supply.

This whole matter is forcing me to question the personal rights of all Australians. I ask this question,

"Who has the right to put something inside of my body that I haven't asked for? Something that I oppose, and even then have the audacity to ask me to pay for it?"

This may be a criminal violation of my body.

“Have you read the Justice Biscoe ruling on the Oshlack Vs from April 2011?
I understand that you have a copy of it but I have attached another copy just in case.

I cannot understand how NSW Health has passed this plant for operation when PM-H Council has failed to investigate the environmental and human health effects of the plant as per the ruling.

Council and NSW Health appear to be ignoring Justice Biscoe’s ruling which will create a legal liability for council and NSW Health if fluoridation is commenced at this plant on Tuesday. The Fluoridation Act, Crimes Act and Australian Consumer Law 1/1/2011 are all being contravened here.”

AND HERE'S ANOTHER EXAMPLE

Dear Sirs

I refer to the imminent fluoridation of the water supply I am obliged to use in Wauchope.

I direct your attention to Justice Biscoe's ruling on the Oshlack Vs Ballina Council and Rous Water of April 2011. I understand that you have a copy of it but I have attached another copy just in case.

It is my undrestanding that PM-H Council has failed to investigate the environmental and human health effects of the plant as per the ruling. I cannot understand how NSW Health has been able to direct PM-H council to proceed when this has not been done.
Council and NSW Health appear to be ignoring Justice Biscoe’s ruling. This will, it appears, create a legal liability for council and NSW Health if fluoridation is commenced at this plant on Tuesday as threatened.

The Fluoridation Act, Crimes Act and Australian Consumer Law 1/1/2011 are all being contravened here.

I would remind Mr Stoner of his pre-election promise to help delay fluoridation until a community poll can be held in conjunction with council elections. It is my understanding that the majority of the community, including me, does not wish to have a foreign substance added to our water supply without our consent. All the worse that this substance is widely regarded as toxic for routine human ingestion.

I urgently request a stay in the execution of the direction to add fluoride to our water, until after a poll can be conducted in conjucntion with our next Council elections.
