The fine print:
The daily news wrap provides a summary of freely available online content and news that relates to Environment Victoria and our campaigns. It does not provide access to content sourced from subscription based services.

We extend this service to our members and supporters for free in the interests of keeping our networks up to date on the latest news. However, we cannot guarantee that every article on every environmental issue will be included in our news wraps.
Inclusion of an article in our news wrap does not amount to an endorsement of that article, or represent any guarantee as to its accuracy.
