DLRA

 

Letter to the Minister

The South Australian Department of Environment and Heritage (DEH) has given its conditional approval for the 2009 event. The condition is that there is agreement to the event from the relevant indigenous stakeholders. Ideally this would be in the form of an Indigenous Land Use Agreement (ILUA).
DEH and representatives of the DLRA have been trying to get these indigenous stakeholders to a meeting for some time without any success. The DLRA committee has decided it is now at the stage where if we are to run an event next year this needs to happen now.

You can help!

In an attempt to get these people to the table, we encourage you to sign and post or email one of these letters (see links below) to the Minister (he holds both the Environment & Heritage and Aboriginal Affairs portfolios) or one of the other organisations people listed.
There are two proforma letters, one for members of the DLRA and one for supporters, spectators and enthusiasts of Dry Lakes Racing in Australia. Please use these letters and we implore you not to add abusive or threatening remarks to these letters. Feel free to pass these letters along to anyone wishing to support the DLRA and Dry Lakes Racing in Australia.
We are also requesting Port Augusta Council to support us by sending a letter them as well.
