Law club wants own finance

The Law Faculty Club wants more money—and it thinks a surcharge on law students is the way to get it.

The Recent annual meeting of the club recommended that a surcharge be imposed on law students if the club can conclude satisfactory administrative arrangements with the students' association.

The club committee must first report back to the club before the scheme can be instituted, and this reporting back must take place within three months.

Outgoing president Mr. F. M. Shanahan suggested a levy of 5/-per member, to be collected at enrolment.

This would be additional to a students' association grant.

Mr. R. Chapman said that some club members sent to Australia as law mooters have been out of pocket for up to £100.

He said that the Australia-New Zealand moot in 1967 will be the most expensive thing the club has ever run.

Incoming president Mr. D. McKegg said "No one is prepared to stand by the faculty. Students have got to stand by the functions organised."
