Hey NSW Fair Trading ... What About Strata Owners?

This week is Fair Trading Week in NSW.  5 days when NSW Fair Trading showcases the consumer areas it's responsible for and provides useful public information in a series of events around the state.  The schedule is here.
But, what happened to strata title owners and occupiers?  
In NSW there's over 60,000 strata corporations and over 700,000 strata owners under the regulation of NSW Fair Trading. 
And for all of them this week NSW Fair Trading is running just 1 seminar in Batemans Bay.
Now, don't get me wrong.  I'm sure that there should be a strata title seminar in Batemans Bay (and it's a really nice place). But, I think that there should also be seminars in a few other places too - like various parts of Sydney, Wollongong, Newcastle, the Central Coast and the North Coast - where there's a lot of strata apartments.  
After all, there's plenty of people in NSW who want (and perhaps more importantly need) to know more about strata ownership, living and management.  If you're one of them you'd better head to Batemans Bay on Thursday.
It's pretty disappointing and probably reflects how importantly (not) NSW Fair Trading regards strata title owners. 
C'mon ... surely we can do better than this.?
