    Also what about the scenario of the unlucky hunter who tries and tries to get a block but never gets one but gives DOC $40 to $100 for nothing, is there going to be a points system started to give these people a fair shot eventually instead of taking there money.

    My thoughts so far.
    Im not suggesting the level of service change, just that as paying stakeholders there would be expectations. Like if they say we are paying for deer exclosures and "management" then thats what we will damn well get.. I think the system could be stream lined too. Currently it is an automated system for the Blue Mnts, not for Leithen and Waikaia, problem is the mannual input into that system. There is a "points" system for the Blue Mnts, again not for Leithen and Waikaia, and I think it works very well... I dont have a problem with anyday ballots as that gives you a better chance of getting a block which is offset by a higher chance of getting a poorer time...

    Malcolm you want to PM your email so I can forward the minutes?

    Incoming.

    Those Any day ballots piss me off aye, people must know when they want to hunt and if they put i a any day ballot and then decide they cant hunt it for some reason and dont hand the block in then that really irks me.

    Being a Govt Dept and all, I though 45k was pretty cheap to be honest.
    $5k on Stationary? someones got a big stash of pens at home!
