Club merger approved
A proposal to amalgamate the Association of Working Men’s Clubs and Chartered Clubs was approved in principle at the annual national conferences of the two associations in Christchurch.
The amalgamation proposal was brought forward as a remit to both association conferences and had met a good response, said the general manager of the Christchurch Working Men’s Club (Mr I. A. Davison).
The conference would set up a sub-committee of the two associations to look at the amalgamation proposal in detail and report back to the conference in 1981. At the Chartered Clubs’ conference recently the admission age of members was lowered from 20 to 18, in a remit carried by a slender majority.
The guest speaker at the conference yesterdav was the chairman of the Licensing Control Commission. Judge Fea, who addressed the conference on New Zealand Licensing laws and how they were applied by the commission.
