Acknowledgement
The Geelong Community Forum Inc. would like to thank the
Commonwealth for its financial support in the development
of the RFA Home Page on this Web Site. The Commonwealth
has the right to copy articles on the RFA Home Page. We
have been asked to publish the following disclaimer: "The
views expressed are not necessarily the views of the Commonwealth,
and the Commonwealth does not accept responsibility in respect
of any information or advice given in relation to or as
a consequence of anything contained herein." Acceptance
of funding has been conditional upon us not using the RFA
money to support public activities or publishing materials
that oppose the overall RFA process. Therefore, we are unable
to publish links to organisations such as the Cobaw/Wombat
Forest Action Group which oppose the RFA on the RFA Homepage.
This does not imply that the Geelong Community Forum accepts
the premises of the RFA process, but simply that we have
entered into the consultations with good will. We reserve
the right to argue for outcomes that are environmentally,
economically and socially sustainable.
