We already have. Professor Sale organized a submission to the ARC on
open access. I signed it for the ACS:
<http://www.ecs.soton.ac.uk/~harnad/Hypermail/Amsci/5379.html>.
"The submission is addressed to making a change in the reporting
requirements for all funded schemes, which will make it a requirement
of receiving the grant to deposit an electronic copy of any refereed
research journal or conference articles deriving from the grant with
the institution administering the grant. Minor changes are needed in
the Funding Rules and the Funding Agreements. ..."
