NOVEMBER 1972: The Labour Party becomes the Government promising a Standard Tertiary Bursary that would be an adequate living allowance.* NOVEMBER 1975; A National Party election advertisement promises that "All students will receive the Standard Tertiary Bursary."

Both major political parties have caused these in their cynical chase for votes, in this case at the expense of students. Students are looking for a major improvement in their performance in the near future. *Standard Tertiary Bursary not introduced until February 1976. ** April 1978, and National's promises still not implemented.
