Vic Dominates Commission

Vic Dominates Commission

Victoria's delegates, John Eade and Guy Salmon, dominated the International Commission at Easter Council.

This was due largely to the fact that they were fully conversant with their own policy and with what was happening on the national level.

The Commission was notable for the absence of Lincoln delegates who once again disassociated themselves from all International policy. They held that the views expressed by other delegates were not the views held by the majority of students at their respective constituents—despite the fact that all policy was ratified at the constituent SRC meetings or their equivalent.

Lincoln held that NZUSA should limit itself to immediately actionable policy motions only and remove from the books motions concerning Vietnam, South Africa and Rhodesia, and Omega. It was noted, however, that Lincoln was absent from the session on the USP: an area of activity which they supported.
