Australian Cyclists Party

[Shut Up Legs]

A bit more progress...

Move over PUPs...
We have just received notice that our application to the Australian Election Commission to be registered as a Federal Party has been provisionally approved! Notice will be given in national papers on Monday and a 30-day waiting period will follow.

This news follows an earlier approval in NSW and establishes the party as a true national party preparing to contest at any level of government! Our thanks for your support helping us make this possible!
