2. The card doesn't state what activities we are covered for. e.g. Shooting Member status, non shooting member.
3. The card does not have any contact information either for the cardholder or someone trying to determine the cardholder's validity. e.g. GNAS telephone number, Insurance Companies telephone number etc.

The policeman in no way could be satisfied with this as any way forming a satifactory level of identification or membership of a sporting insitution that uses potentially leathal equipment.
I'm led to believe that the technology is now available for the office to print permanent GNAS cards.... the days of the paper label are limited.

Coaching licences will also have photos on them.
