A collection will be held during the Students' Association elections to pay a $50 fine incurred by a student.

Alan Wiltshire (above), a first-year commerce student, was convicted and flined as a result of an incident during the demonstration at Parliament on June 26.

His legal fees in the Magistrate's Court were met from Students' Association funds.

The demonstration followed a march called by a Special General Meeting of the Students' Association.

There will be collection boxes at polling booths during the election.
