Strange that meeting is invitation only

10:38am Monday 10th September 2007 in Letters

YOUR correspondent B Jones (SA, September 6) seems to have received much the same response from MP Anne Snelgrove as I did when I registered my interest in attending her ID card information event on September 20.

I have also been placed on a reserve list, again with a strict reminder that attendance at the event is by invitation only.

Last November's public meeting on the same subject, organised by volunteers, was held in the Pilgrim Centre, ensuring that nobody was turned away due to lack of space, it's curious that our MP was not able to secure a venue large enough to accommodate all those who want to attend her event.

S BRIDEWELL.
