To the Honourable the President and Senators of the Senate assembled in Parliament:
The petition of the undersigned citizens respectfully shows that we, as residents of the Australian Capital Territory, urge the government to:
reject moves to cut the funding of the Australian Broadcasting Corporation and instead maintain funding in real terms
recognise and maintain the role of the Australian Broadcasting Corporation as a comprehensive, mainstream and independent media organisation, and not just a complimentary service to commercial media
recognise the ABC Charter as a valuable instrument for the expression of Australian cultural life that should not be devalued as a result of economic and political considerations.
And your petitioners as in duty bound will ever pray.
