Secret actions of Big Brother while MPs chase re-election While “Party Politics” grabs news attention, behind the scene multinational pharmaceutical companies and government bureaucrats are making secret progress in controlling the Health industry in NZ and Australia. The intention is to prevent your freedom to use ‘alternative’ (to these company’s) natural health products and medical services. Your choice in naturally produced vitamins and mineral supplements will be curtailed It is essential that YOU take action NOW if you object to the curtailment of individual Rights – whether you see the need currently to use natural health. Alternatives also keep the costs of all health services in control. You can easily register your opinion in a simple form at http://nzhealthtrust.co.nz/urgent_support.php We recommend you to visit this website which contains information important to your future health choices and we support the NZ Health Trust right now if we want to make a difference. For further information visit http://www.nzhealthtrust.co.nz .
The text of email received on this subject read: The NZ and Australian Governments are trying to give control of our medicines, natural health products and medical devices to an international version of the Australian TGA. Even though NZ's Parliamentary Health Select Committee unanimously recommended AGAINST this proposal, the two Governments signed a treaty to give away our rights to control these industries for ourselves in December 2003. But because of the opposition so far the treaty hasn't yet been able to be passed into law. The NZ Government is trying desperately to get other political parties to support them but through continued direct opposition we can still stop it. The website I am sending you the link for is for the New Zealand Health Trust which is a Charitable Trust that has been at the forefront of the opposition to this proposal. It focuses on keeping our health choices controlled by each country for the good of that country with sensible regulations that encourage cost efficiency, safety and choice for consumers and innovation for the industry. The NZ Health Trust is fighting to stop the Government proposal and will need our support. Please use their website to learn more about this issue and register your support for the work they are doing before it is too late. If you click on the "Urgent Support" tab or click this link http://www.nzhealthtrust.co.nz/poll.php you will be able to complete a form that records your opposition to this proposal that is predicted to decimate much of New Zealand's natural health industry. There is also the ability on the website for you to contact your MP's (in Australia or NZ) directly to voice your concerns. http://www.nzhealthtrust.co.nz/cgi-bin/massmailerMPs.cgi I also suggest you subscribe to their newsletter so that you can be kept up to date, informed and alerted when action is needed. Here is the link to subscribe http://www.nzhealthtrust.co.nz/list/?p=subscribe&id=1 It is important that everyone who is likely to be affected/interested knows what is going on so please forward this to as many as you can from your address book. I recommend we support the NZ Health Trust right now if we want to make a difference.
