Motions lapse for want of seconder at ACT council
An elected independent member of the ACT Advisory Council, Mr R P Greenish, had 29 motions on the agenda at a council meeting, but 28 lapsed for want of a seconder. Only one motion was seconded, proposing a change in how Canberra is represented on the Australian Tourist Promotion Council. Other items included a claim to use amphibian ambulances on Lake Burley Griffin and a call to require long-haired youths to wear bath caps in public pools. A safety-measures motion for Anzac Parade and Barton Highway was rejected, and two fatalities were reported from a Barton Highway crash and an Anzac Parade incident. Further council reports appear on pages 3 and 13.
