Meeting on finance

The Students' Association general finance advisory committee met for the first time recently.

It consists of the president of the Students' Association, the treasurer, the immediate past-treasurer, the Vice-Chancellor, and the Association's financial advisor.

The committee recommended to the Executive that the 1969 estimates be approved with some amendments.

They provide for an increase from $5,000 in 1968 to $5,500 in 1969 in sports club grants, and an increase from $1,400 to $1,500 for cultural clubs.

The possibility of raising the Students' Association fee was discussed. It was decided there was not enough evidence to suggest it was necessary at the present time.
