State Executive To Reprimand Wagga ALP
The State ALP will reprimand the Wagga branch after accepting a Liberal address by David Fairbairn. Ormonde confirmed a planned Wagga speech described as a pep talk. Industrial sources link the issue to Agriculture Minister Graham backing Metro Security watchmen at Homebush Abattoirs. The Labor Council seeks dismissal of the watchmen amid union concerns of a private army. The ALP dispute committee will review three branch complaints tied to Tang federal electorate affairs.
