Opinions about the Bill have changed since the Bill was introduced. It’s becoming clear that co-existence is not possible, and that scientist’s promises are not practical.

We need as many politicians as possible to hear and understand New Zealander’s concerns about the Gene Technology Bill.

We are asking you, our supporters, to share your concerns and make your voices heard.

Even if you emailed an MP before the submissions, we are asking you to email them again. Emails to NZ First are important as their vote in this Bill is very important.

Some points you could mention:

· What you are concerned about (bullet points is probably better)

· Personalise it - what this Bill could mean for you, your family and your business

· This Bill will affect the health and choices of all New Zealanders.
