Dear manager,

                  Thank you for your prompt reply, although I'm a bit puzzled with  "spam"  as part of the subject heading on your return email.

 

The minister no doubt is a very busy person, but trust that my email to Mr Truss asking his opinion on a matter that should worry all responsible adults,  isn't regarded as spam.

 

I mentioned the ads to a friend at a picnic last Sunday and was overheard by a nine year old boy who interrupted with

"yea, and have you heard the one the about super thin condoms"

 

The minister is well placed to contact the right person and suggest to get  this type of adult advertisement aired at adult times.

 

Yours faithfully Hans Stephens.

Dear Mr Stephens

 

Many thanks for your return email.  I understand your point of view with regards to the 'spam' heading, however I would like to point out that the network system we are attached to placed your email in the 'spam' box, not our office.  Under no circumstances does Mr Truss treat such mail as 'spam'.  I apologise that it has occured, however unfortunately it is out of our control.

 

I have forwarded your correspondence to the Hon Bruce Billson MP, Shadow Minister for Broadband, Communications & the Digital Ecomony for his attention and response.  Mr Billson's details are:
