  3. Is this group related to other independent movements across the ACT?
Why does the group cover both Belconnen and Gungahlin, and both a Federal and two ACT electorates? Is this group related to other independent movements across the ACT? What is your policy platform? Is Voices of Belconnen and Gungahlin a political party? Will this group be running independent candidates across three different electorates? How are you funded? I am already a member of a political party. Can I still participate? I work in the Public Service. Can I participate?

Is this group related to other independent movements across the ACT?

Answer

Voices of Belconnen and Gungahlin is a community group that is auspiced by proACT. proACT is an incorporated association which helps coordinate independent movements across the ACT—see their website (url above) for more information. 

This group also has a broader range of informal connections across the independent movement, and many of our volunteers have experience within proACT itself, or with Voices for Canberra, Voices of Bean, and Independents for Canberra.
