Australian campaign
The Australian campaign to ban animal testing of cosmetics is well underway. Late last year we contacted the Hon Nicola Roxon MP, Minister for Health and Ageing, and requested that Australian legislation be amended to bring it into line with the European " Launched by Dr Katrina Warren, CCF has distributed over 15,000 postcards and are sending out more every week. The postcards are addressed to the Hon Nicola Roxon and ask that Australia follow the example set by the EU. We are hoping that the minister will reconsider her decision to reject our request once she finds it difficult to find her desk under all the mail. We would be very grateful to any of our readers who are prepared to distribute postcards for us.

Our celebrity supporters have also kindly offered their assistance with the campaign. Award winning author Christos Tsiolkas has joined the campagin along with Tracy Bartram, well known comedian and long time campaigner for animal rights. We are confident that the majority of Australians will support the proposed ban on animal tested cosmetics once they become aware of the cruelty involved
