Green Party policy is contained in four key docuements:
The Statement of Core Principles contains the 10 core values which underpin Green Politics.
The Philosophical Basis expands the core values to discuss the characteristics of a sustainable society.
The Manifesto for a Sustainable Society (MfSS) is the large repository of statements of principle, background information and long and short term specific policies for the creation and maintenance of a sustainable society. The MfSS is divided into 38 chapters each dealing with a different area of policy. The whole document weighs in at about 250 pages with about 140,000 words.
The Record of Policy Statements (RoPS)contains short term reactive policy statements which do not amend the main MfSS. These are also organised into chapters matching the MfSS, although not every MfSS chapter has policy statements attached and short term policies often apply to more than one chapter.
On this website all of the MfSS chapters, the Philosophical Basis and the Statement of Core Principles are available both as web pages and also as downloadabble PDF documents. Policy statements are not yet all available as web pages, some still only exist as PDF documents.
