Historical Note
The Australian Republican Movement was founded in July 1991, following the Australian Labor Party's adoption of republicanism as a policy at its conference in June of that year. The Australian Republican Movement's first chairman was the novelist, Thomas Keneally, with other founding members including the investment banker and Liberal party politician, Malcolm Turnbull, the former Australian cricket captain, Ian Chappell, and the film director, Fred Schepisi. It is currently headed by retired Major-General Michael Keating. Although opinion polls showed that many Australians favoured becoming a republic, divisions emerged in the Movement between those who favoured indirect election of the President by Parliament, and those who favoured direct election by the people. This led to Australian voters rejecting at a referendum in 1999 a constitutional amendment to a specific form of republic described by some as the "minimalist" model because it involved the least change to the Constitution of the various republican models proposed.
