No! to Free Trade Agreement

Massey University capping magazines will not be sold in Wellington in future.

Massey sales were restricted at a recent meeting of the New Zealand Universities' Students' Association council to an area north of Masterton and Paraparaumu and south of Cambridge.

Victoria and Canterbury delegates complained that sales in their territories in the past had seriously affected sales of their own capping magazines.

A Canterbury delegate pointed out that the Massey magazine was produced from a week to a fortnight before other capping publications came out. He felt this gave Massey an unfair advantage out of its own area.

Massey replied that there was a specific demand for its magazine. Victoria had not produced a capping magazine this year and Massey believed that if its magazine had not been available in Wellington, a breach of faith with the public would have resulted.

Sales at Canterbury had been confined to the university campus.
