Title of Motion: Societie smoschmieties
Proposer: Jessica Carey (145742)
Seconder: Georgie Bailey (160001)
SMSU Believes: That Societies do not need to be ratified during SU council, although they can be deratified through SU council.
SMSU Notes: Currently, new societies fill out a ratification pack (have to obtain 10 members and explain why they want the society) and present it to the VPSS. They then have to wait for the next SU council to become ‘ratified’ and have access to the society grant fund
SMSU Resolves: SMSU should immediately remove the need to ratify clubs at SU council.
