Lobbying Your Local Member of Parliament

There are lots of good reasons to lobby your local Member of Parliament (MP) about lead-safety and lead-poisoning prevention.

Here are some ideas:

✍Addressing lead-contaminated tank water and ceiling dust in Indigenous communities

✍Legislating lead-hazards handouts for potential buyers, renters and improving DIY information to prevent lead exposure and secondary contamination (eg sanding or scraped lead paint left on the ground)

 ✍Cleaning up lead mining towns for future generations

✍Lowering allowable lead levels in Australian Drinking Water Guidelines

✍Banning duck hunting and the use of leaded bullets; and fishing sinkers and wheel weights
