[ANU Pacific.Institute] PI statement on Future Resourcing of PacLII

[Miranda Forsyth]

Dear Pacific Institute members

There is news this week of a serious threat to the continued funding of PacLII, an online legal resource based at Emalus Campus in Vanuatu.  See: http://www.abc.net.au/news/2016-05-25/pacific-corruption-fighters-worried-as-online/7445926.

The PI Board has approved a statement that we have put online that expresses support for the continuation of funding and stresses the importance of the resource (see news item one on the website: http://pacificinstitute.anu.edu.au/).  Please use these ideas with anyone of influence to try to ensure a stable future for PacLII.

Kind regards

Miranda
