Given the new situation in Australia created by the split of the Socialist Workers Party leadership from the Fourth International, it is necessary to regroup all those revolutionaries in Australia who remain active Fourth Internationalists,
Our aim is to build a revolutionary working-class organisation as an integral part of the building of a new international revolutionary movement — the task that has historically faced the forces of the Fourth International. This is the course that the Australian SWP leadership abandoned. The platform of this organisation will be based on the historic revolutionary Marxist foundations of the Fourth International.
In order to launch such a membership organisation, a founding conference will be held in Sydney over the Easter weekend, March 28-31. 1986. Atthis conference a statement of aims will be discussed and adopted, along with perspectives for political work.
All those who actively support the rebuilding of the Fourth International in Australia, financially and through distributing the publications of the International, will be able to discuss the platform in its draft form and participate as voting delegates at the founding conference.

That is why the Fourth International was founded and why we should be a part of it today."
All those interested in helping to build the Fourth International in Australia should write to: Post Office Box E 192, St. James Station, Sydney. New South Wales, 2000 or call (02) 550-1504.
