Late News

Rhys Harrison announed at Executive last night he was resigning his portfolio, effective from June 13.

"Denis was defeated by me in the last election", he said.

Commenting on his attendance record (see Exec column on page three) he said he was working until late into the evening during the vacation and, for the first term, did not finish work until 8.30 p.m. on Mondays when most Exec meetings are held.

Rhys replied to the charges about Open Day that his job was only to publicise it.

The accusations about his continual interruptions in the last Exec meting he felt were "petty."

He had suggested to the President of the Students' Association, Doug White, that the Exec should listen to the Radio Show.

"Doug gave me his consent before the meeting" he said.

Rhys denied accusations that he could do more for the Radio Show. He was, he said, to publicise it not necessarily report it.

The NZBC feel that liason is unsatisfactory.
