There's no publicly available discussion, and as far as I can see never has
been, on the Greens website http://greens.org.au/. There is though a members
only section, which is therefore secret. I've never seen a word about debate
in the Greens in the bourgeois press, or those issues of Greens Magazine
that I've looked at (about policy as opposed to broad issues). Google
"greens debate" or "greens conference" for Australian sites and no debate
seems forthcoming.
If you can point to anything otherwise, fine. I don't really care or think
it should be otherwise, it's obviously up to the Greens themselves - but
just as obviously they put little priority on publicising their debates if
they can't be found online in any clear way. Which, unless you've moved
motions to change this situation, makes your long-term harping on this
question with regards to the DSP quite hypocritical.
