Urban issues policy group established

As decided at our national conference in May, the Socialist Alliance is to develop policy working groups in a broad range of areas. An “urban issues” policy working group has now been established. It began with a housing focus and has been strengthened by incorporating allied issues such as transport, the urban environment, local government.

Any member of Socialist Alliance can contribute to its discussions and deliberations. We plan to establish working policy for the Alliance by researching background information and writing up platform statements to be voted on by the broader SA membership. So we are looking for contributions and experiences that can enrich our understanding and develop policy.
