Dear Minister. The Hon. David Johntson,
Re The Act.To Protect the Australian People
I thank you for your letter of 19th July 2007, being in response to our letter to the Hon.Philip Ruddock dated 17 April 2007. Which we feel needs to be clarified further.
Firstly, from your letter, you have made mention of the conduct of the AFP, and that "Justice Finn found that the AFP acted appropriately at all times" Which we fully except. However, if the Australian Government was committed by proper legislation law, to protect the people of Australia, then AFP would have been deeply obligated to apprehend the Bali Nine in Australia prior to going Indonesia. Which is still remains a matter of great public concern.
I note that is Australian Government has written to the Indonesian authorities to express its clear opposition to the application of the death penalty, which I am sure will be of some comfort to all those family's effect, and appreciated by many Australians.
As to the second last paragraph of your letter, it appears that you have only relied of the contents of the Attorney-General letter 13 April 2007, which we found very unsatisfactory, this promoting the urgent need for us to again write to the Attorney-General,on the 17 April 2007, Which in turn was referred to you as the responsible Minister.Sadly for reasons unknown to us, the issue still remains open.
We also note that you "..do not consider the events relating to the nine Australians in Indonesia justify the introduction of legislation.." We point out, We used Bali Nine case as an example, to show cause and reason why the Australian Government needs to consider legislation to protect the People of Australia, as you may well be aware that the Government is not committed by Law to protect the people. Now! an undisputed fact .
As simplicity is the most convenient way to the truth, Therefore I ask, If you could forward a copy of any legislation or Act, that commits the Australian Government to protect the People of Australia, we would greatly appreciated if you could attend to matter at your earliest and most convenient moment. Accountability is now a must, to build a better future for all of us.
I thank you
Yours sincerely

Re: Accountability of Government Departments
I write to add to our letter of the 7th June 2007 and to bring to your attention the ABC program 4 Corners Ghost Prisoners aired Monday 11 June 2007, it revealed,a solicitor acting on behalf of (Mr.Arbin ?) his client, is taking legal action against the Australian Government for failing to protect the people of Australia.I ask, Did you see the program?
In our previous correspondence we made mention that
"..that the Australian Government is not committed to protecting the citizens of Australian, during peace time, The Government of Australia has no proper legislated Act that commits the Government of Australia to Protect the People .of Australia
Considering the time now lapsed, we trust that time has allowed you to fully comprehended the contents and meaning of the issue raised, we previously pointed out that the Attorney-General Hon. Philip Ruddock letter of the 13th April 2007, as being unsatisfactory, disappointing, as it failed to address the matter in a responsibly way as expected by most citizens of our country.
It is now quite clear to us, that the Australian Government is not committed by legislation to Protect the People of Australia, Surely, it would be within reason, a very simple task for Parliament to rectify the situation to legislate, and remove any doubt whatsoever, this in turn assuring peace of mind to the poeple of Australian.
We trust that you will pursue this matter,it is of growing public concern and interest.
I thank you
Yours sincerely
