Roger Douglas has a Bill before Parliament that would impose Voluntary Student Membership (VSM) on campuses across New Zealand, devastating services and silencing students.
At present, when students enrol at most students' associations they pay a levy that goes towards services like advocacy, welfare services, events like Orientation and support for clubs and sport. They also become members of their students' association, the democratic organisation run by students for students that controls how that money is spent. Students can opt out of membership and their association will not receive that levy.
We need your help to save our - and your - services. Check out our info page on VSM and what students stand to lose or you can take action by emailing your MPs, making a submission to the Select Committee and signing up to receive campaign updates.
