00:00 Apparently there's conflicting WHS advice and using that as a pretext to move the encampment on
00:05 But it's in a context where we've seen other complaints about the condition of the lawn, the smell of the encampment
00:11 So it's hard to say it as anything other than a pretext.
00:15 So is this actually a fire assembly point?
00:18 It depends where you look. Some buildings have evacuation procedures which have alternative evacuation points.
00:24 Other websites suggest that it could be.
00:26 So the University said that a fire evacuation failed on the weekend with an alternative point.
00:34 Do you know anything about that?
00:36 No, I'm not across that.
00:37 I mean, do you think the encampment has any intention of moving today?
00:41 I can't say, but what I will say is the decision by the University to call police onto campus to break up a legitimate
00:49 peaceful student protest is nothing short of shameful.
00:52 Thank you.
