GOVERNMENT DEPARTMENT LIAISON.

Letter forwarded to all CEO's of all relevant State/Territory Depts in November 2017

Since the inception of the WWFF program in Australia, there have been thousands of park activations all across Australia.  During a number of those, activators have had interactions with park rangers.  The majority of those interactions have been positive, however there have been reports of poor interaction.

In November 2017, a letter was mailed to all Chief Executive Officers (CEO's) of the relevant State/Territory authorities, to advise them of the existence of the WWFF program.

Sadly, only VK3, VK5, and VK6 authorities responded.  A response was never received from the VK1, VK2, VK4, VK7, and VK8 authorities.

​A copy of the letter sent, and the replies can be found below.
