NZUSA remits

NZUSA remits

The Executive has forwarded six remits to NZUSA for discussion at Easter Council. The remits had to be forwarded to NZUSA by 28 February in order that they be placed on the Council Agenda.

However, the Executive has told NZUSA that Victoria's attitude to the remits will depend on the outcome of discussion in the Students' Representation Council. The six remits will be discussed by the SRC at its first meeting tomorrow at 1.30pm.

Victoria's remits are as follows (the name of the executive member who proposed the remits appears in brackets):

"That NZUSA do support the staging of a symposium on conservation of the natural environment"

(Ian Stockwell)

"That NZUSA do hold a seminar in July to be attended by representatives of all associations to discuss the particular role of NZUSA with particular reference to whether NZUSA should be involved mainly with liaison between student bodies and whether development in educational research in producing independent reviews etc, is within the desired goal of NZUSA future development"

(Margaret Bryson)

"That NZUSA do support the demand of the Public Enquiry Committee into the actions of the police at the demonstrations in Auckland on the occasion of the visit of Vice-President Agnew"

(Graeme Nesbitt)

"That NZUSA do support the abolition of all laws against abortion."

(Margaret Bryson)

"That NZUSA express its view that licensing laws in New Zealand should be liberalised and that a committee be established under the auspices of NZUSA to report to Winter Council on specific amendments which could be made to existing legislation."
