The V.P.C. Research and Information Centre existed as an autonomous group until 1964, publishing material on different aspects of peace, disarmament and anti-colonialism. The C.I.C.D. took over the Council's active campaign for peace and nuclear disarmament, later acting as a co-ordinating facility for anti-Vietnam war protest, particularly the 1970 to 1972 Moratorium rallies.
