Subject: Proposed tax changes for churches and charities

To whom it may concern,

I am emailing you in regard to the ‘IN AUSTRALIA’ SPECIAL CONDITIONS FOR TAX CONCESSION ENTITIES (EXPOSURE DRAFT) which has just come to my attention and to express my disgust that as a Nation we would be seeking to thwart the work of churches and charities to be able to work in overseas (third world) nations via these proposed changes. 
Please do add my objection to this proposed change as it will disadvantage the many, many poor and needy people in so many countries. I cannot imagine this is the intention of anyone in government or opposition but you can be assured that if this bill is passed I will be doing all I can to let people know this has taken place and that this government is all about stopping assistance to disadvantaged people in overseas nations.

Yours,
