Sgm Report

Sgm Report

A Special General Meeting was held last Wednesday to discuss a number of important things. The major issues were : -
1.A change to the constitution to allow no-confidence votes at executive elections.
2.Methods for paying off the cafe loss.
3.Women's Commission - to continue or not to continue.

Probably, the most notable thing of all about this SGM was the lack of attendance. At a meeting where a fee increase is being discussed I would have expected a few more than the hundred or so hard core students to turn up.

It seems that extensive advertising in the last issue of Salient had little or no effect on the attendance. Anyway, gripes aside, it was a reasonably boring SGM, especially after Mark Sainsbury and Simon Treacy withdrew their motion for the erection of a fifty thousand dollar "Smokers Paradise" on campus.
