They're doing a review of aviation security in Australia. (Consulation Paper)
Section 6.1 of the above paper contains the question: "Should the list of prohibited items be amended to remove low risk items?" Here is the chance to be able to knit/crochet on flights within or entering Australia. Keep in mind that the Transport Security Administration (USA) allows knitting and crochet on flights (yes, there are caveats, but there's none of this blanket: No knitting, No crochet... "basically no craft" to quote Air New Zealand staff bullshit).
People on Ravelry have created a form letter and have contact details that you can get from here.
Submissions close on the 19th of September. At this stage, afaik, all letters will be dumped into a "XXX many submissions came from knitters..." line in the report, so a form letter is just fine -- feel free to correct me on that point if it'll make any sort of difference!
