To the Honourable the President and Members of the Senate in Parliament assembled:

The petition of the undersigned shows that certain citizens of the Central Coast of New South Wales draw to the attention of the Senate their objection to the proposal to erect a mobile phone base station on top of the Ettalong Beach War Memorial Club building. Your petitioners are particularly concerned that position of the base station is within 300 metres of the Ettalong Public School and could potentially constitute a health risk.

Your petitioners therefore request that the Senate act to ensure that a carrier must not construct a mobile phone base station within 300 metres of a child care centre, kindergarten, school or hospital.
