Good evening Eric,
It is news to me. Not something I would be happy with at all, the needs
of the two groups are so different that advocacy for both at the same
time will not be very useful at all.
We are already in considerable trouble with the ABS and departments
throwing the statistics pertaining to both groups into the one bucket
which makes them meaningless.
Has anybody else got info on this?
