Amalgamation debate info – stand by

Were you one of those cynics who assumed that the MEAA debate about a possible amalgamation with the CPSU was simply for show – that the amalgamation was a done deal and the debate was a sham, constructed to try to demonstrate democracy in action?

If so you've just been proved wrong.

The Alliance Federal Executive met in Sydney yesterday and today (Tuesday, March 8) to consider several important issues including the possible amalgamation and the debate was robust, to say the least. Very robust, at times.

I'll leave details of what happened, what motions were carried etc, until the information is formally released. But you can be assured there wasn't a rubber stamp in the room.

Stand by . . .

Terry O'Connor, Queensland Secretary
