She says they have called for a special meeting of the USP Council.
Payne adds that it is important to find an acceptable solution for all Pacific countries, that is in the best interests of the university and education in the region.
She further says that Australia recognises USP as an important and highly valued regional institution and tertiary provider in the Pacific. Payne says Australia is a longstanding partner of USP and they are strongly committed to supporting education in the region.
