2018 Allocation

Regrettably, the ANU informed Observer of certain governance requirements for receipt of SSAF after the last meeting of ANU’s Council of 2018. As such, Observer will only be able to meet those requirements after the ANU council next meets in February to approve changes. The SSAF allocation is therefore provisional and will be awarded in February of 2018.
