AFANT said Fisheries Minister Kon Vatskalis has confirmed he will be attending.

Sean Kildare from Inpex will also attend and will update members on the latest information about the Inpex development plans.

Sounds like the meeting could be explosive

Come on ladies and gentlemen we need to ensure a good turn out to this meeting - otherwise NO ONE in government is going to take AFANT - your organisation - SERIOUSLY. I am in Victoria on course otherwise I would be there but lets forget he p..s poor excuses and get our arses along to this thing and ask questions and be informed if nothing else.
Too easy to make excuses and not turn up - forego fishing for one day and get along to this thing otherwise when you are paying boat rego and not able to access fishing grounds that have been closed you wont have done evrything in your power to prevent it.
Also dont forget the government has done some positive things like the closure - albeit insufficient in my opinion, palmertson ramp etc but without political pressure they wont take rec fishers seriously and before you know it will be too late.
Hopefully there will be a good turn out
