"Women's issues" are becoming increasingly important to the nation's policy makers and politicians. This has led, among other things, to the Economic Equity Act (H.R. 2090 and S.888) introduced in the House by Patricia Schroeder (D-CO), and in the Senate by Dave Durenberger (R-MN). The many subjects addressed by H.R. 2090 and S.888 fall into three broad categories. The first deals with tax and retirement matters and is found primarily in Title I. The second category deals with child care issues: dependent care tax credits and availability in Title II and child support enforce- ment in Title V. The third category covers regulation and insur- ance in Titles IV and III, respectively.
Petition to limit activities at ‘The Fernery’
DEAR Sir,
On behalf of property owners interested in the district adjacent to “The Fernery,” I am presenting at the forthcoming meeting of the Frankston and Hastings Shire Council a petition signed by practically the whole of those immediately concerned in the welfare of the locality.
For your information, copies of the petition and the covering letter accompanying same are appended hereto.
I am further directed to say that in the event of our petition being unsuccessful with the council, we shall institute legal proceedings.
This, however, we trust will be unnecessary.
Yours faithfully
