By an overwhelming majority delegates to a conference representing more than two-thirds of the unions in the State passed a resolution repudiating Mr Lang's leadership of the Labour Party. The resolution referred to ‘the arrogant misuse of power and position by a coterie grouped around Mr Lang and Mr Beasley.’ It was decided to summon a further conference of representatives of trade unions and the Australian Labour Party branches and the leagues early next year to prepare plans for the rehabilitation of the Australian Labour Party in New South Wales on a democratic basis "free from inner group control of trickery and corruption.”
