Please find attached an Open Letter to Minister Helen Coonan which spells out the travesty of the termination of ICTV, the Indigenous Community Television network, and appeals for a remedy.<BR>
<BR>
I hope it encourages some debate and a policy adjustment by the Minister.<BR>
<BR>
Please consider it, and I encourage you to forward the letter to anyone you think would be interested or concerned, or indeed, who could help the cause, including Aboriginal leadership, the press, elected representatives, and so on.<BR>
<BR>
Kindest regards,<BR>
<BR>
Frank Rijavec <BR>
