Just to clarify no TFPQ does not want to "go it alone". That said, we have had an "at arms length" relationship with TFP which has been registered federally but based in NSW and with a board made up 100% of NSW representitives. Not any point going into the nitty gritty of this but suffice to say we have not shared much in the way of communication or common goals for over 12 months.
Our understanding, & I will stand corrected, is that now that TFPQ is registered at a state level no entity can register federally without our approval, nor can we register without any other TFP legal entities approval.
Our hope is that we can negotiate an arrangement with TFP in NSW (the previuos federal entity) so that a more representitive federal body emerges with shared representation, shared input and common goals and with a democratic constitution based on voting rights from each state.
All part of the internal politics of a growing and dynamic movement......at the end of the day this will be a positive step forward for the party either way.
If Bob's position is correct, then we are mistaken and as said, I will stand corrected.
We will however try to influence the structure of the federal body. It makes no sense to TFPQ that having "made the running" during the last 2 years we have no meaningful input to the party federally, its structure, constitution, policies or goals. We are and have been stand alone through most of our brief history despite having experiences and more importantly government contacts which could benifit recreational fishing in all states.
This need not become a p$#@ssing contest.
TFPQ wants a say in the make-up of the federal organisation and based on our performance believe this should be our right & more importantly believe this would benifit everyone South of the border as well.
TFP wants a continuation of the current regime and current model and we will try to negoitate some changes. ...................Politics!!
Never dull, never without some internal power plays and all good fun
