Throughout its existence NZAVS has been urged by the press, the politicians and the public, to..

"protest through official channels"

NZAVS asks... who more official than the Chairman of the Primary Production Select Committee? Who, on 20 March 1991, at the Parliamentary Hearing of NZAVS Petition to Abolish Vivisection said:

"there are matters more pressing"... "you have two hours - you can do what you like with it"!
