I accept that in the past many felt that they weren't listened to. However, in this position I can honestly say, all those who wish to be heard are. In the case regarding the Nationals change I can truly say that every submission sent in was addressed. However as you know there needs to be a final call and they were made by what we believed was the best for the majority after all those considerations. Already I have heard from sources that "I put in a submission and it was completely ignored". The reality is, it wasn't ignored it simply didn't become part of what was implemented for any number of reasons. Every single submission was addressed. Absolutely.
Chad has covered most of what I was going to say, so all I will add is, as the President I am more than happy to travel anywhere to discuss the NZACA and hear your concerns. I have already proved that I am prepared to do that.
Lastly. The thought that this Executive is a bunch of bullies is a sad perception. I would suggest those outside the Executive would not know exactly what occurred in the recent past and how we ended up in the very disappointing situation we did. I have said so many times in so many forums, not one of us became Officers of this Association to become embroiled in the type of issues we did and nor did we want to take the final action we did. Such decisions are huge and only taken when all else fails.
