FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
OUTCOMES OF THE MOTORCYCLE COUNCIL OF NSW ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING

At its recent Annual General Meeting, the Motorcycle Council of NSW (MCC of NSW) was pleased to welcome a new Committee and to farewell the outgoing treasurer, Ray Gilbert, and secretary, Chrissy Gilbert.

The new MCC of NSW secretary is Janelle Haffenden and the new treasurer is Emily Hohnke.

Other new and welcome additions to the Executive Committee are Craig Hall, who also holds the role as Chairman of the New Media Sub-committee, and Christopher Burns who will be taking on the Club Liason and Membership Co-ordination Role. They join continuing committee members Bruce Campbell and Brian Woods.

Rob Colligan has been re-elected as Chairman and is joined by Simon Disney as Vice Chairman. “The MCC of NSW owes a massive debt to the outgoing committee, as it has placed the new committee in a position of strength and stability, as we plan to face the future.” Colligan said.

He continued, “There are major positive changes planned for the MCC of NSW in the near future, and the Executive Committee looks forward to implementing these changes as it strives to bring a new professionalism to the MCC of NSW.”

The MCC of NSW is also pleased to announce that following his recent appointment to the Motor Accident Advisory Council (MAAC), Chairman Rob Colligan will take his seat with this important body on 20 December, 2010. Mr Colligan’s appointment will ensure the MCC of NSW will continue to fight for affordable CTP Premiums for all riders after the monstrous, unsupportable and unconscionable increases on 1 July this year.

In the near future the MCC of NSW will be posting on its website the policies it is recommending to all sides of the political milieu, as NSW heads for a state election in March 2011.

It will also post the policies of the political parties, allowing riders to see and understand which party understands riders’ legitimate concerns and which party views motorcycles and scooters in a positive light, and encourage riders to vote accordingly.

The bit that talks about Craig Hall, well, I'm Craig Hall.
We're pushing hard for single seat & rec rego in NSW, as well as ending the CTP rip off. Should make supermoto ownership much easier.
