It has kindly been created by one of our supporters, Lewis Verdyn.<\/p>\n<p>Remember online petitions don&#8217;t count in the actual numbers for the NZ Parliament as many will come from overseas, but they are noted in the cover sheet.<\/p>\n<p>__________________________________________________________________________<\/p>\n<p>Following the letter from the\u00a0Minister of Finance,\u00a0Hon Bill English regarding his opinions of\u00a0The Chicago Plan Revisited, and where he said they were working on\u00a0Open Bank Resolution, we have decided to launch a petition. We decided it was best to ask for a\u00a0Parliamentary Enquiry so that\u00a0New Zealand could take initiative to implement\u00a0The Chicago Plan Revisited.<\/p>\n<p>We don&#8217;t want either taxpayers or bank customers to have to bailout the banks\u00a0in the event of a bank failure. We believe banks should be stable in the first place. That will take radical monetary reform and this has to be done internationally and simultaneously. Our petition is attached, along with a sheet of explanation.<\/p>\n<p>Because we are liaising and working with other organisations wanting the same thing, we have created a Facebook page at\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.facebook.com\/pages\/Petition-for-a-Parliamentary-Enquiry-into-making-banks-stable\/420764948002065\">http:\/\/www.facebook.com\/pages\/Petition-for-a-Parliamentary-Enquiry-into-making-banks-stable\/420764948002065<\/a>. Please like it and contribute to the discussion and information sharing there.<\/p>\n<p>We also have an online petition (although it isn&#8217;t officially counted, the Parliamentary Office says to mention the number of online signatures we get on the cover page.) These signatures of course will come from all over the world.
