Hobart Meeting

Agenda

  • Introductions
  • General update on party activities (how'd we do in the Perth Senate by-election?)
  • Any other business?
  • Move meeting time to 18:30. Parking around Republic Bar is limited until 18:00 due to clearways. 18:30 makes it easier to find a park nearby.

  • Introductions between people

  • Need to get people involved at Uni - can someone get a Uni student pirate Society together?
  • Tim mentioned National Congress is coming up in June or July
  • Scott moved minutes of last meeting be accepted, Peter seconded, done
    • Meeting formalities are rather loose, we're actually just a bunch of people in a pub at this stage.
  • Pete pointed out that "you've joined the announce list" welcome mail comes from Thomas' email address? This should come from a generic state coordinator address. Thomas indicated this pirate party email address may be inactive.
    • Tim suspects the join message comes from whomever's the list runner at the time of joining.
  • Thomas Randall moved that Tim Serong is endorsed by members present as Tasmanian State Co-ordinator. Scott Bragg seconded. Passed unanimously.

Action Items

  • We need to get back in touch with all the people from the Tas Branch Formation WG meeting back in November(?)
  • Craige was talking about a Tassie-specific promo flyer design at some point - Tim to chase up WTF happened with this.
