We will have a better chance of success in reforming Labor’s refugee policies if supporters of L4R  stand as Delegates for next year’s National Conference.   The changes to ALP rules allow National Conference Delegates to be elected by rank and file members from their Federal Electorate Councils.  We therefore urge you to consider nominating when this opportunity arises.  There will be 107 Delegates attending from NSW. 

If you intend running as a Conference Delegate, please send us your Expression of Interest so that we can support you.
