Voting
All members of the Students’ Union (Lancaster University students) are eligible to vote to approve all items on the agenda (bar the Union Assembly minutes).
For motions to be approved as LUSU policy 2% of the student population must be present. This equates to 320 members. For the accounts and affiliations to be approved at least 150 members must be present.
For the avoidance of doubt, none of the motions proposed represent official policy of the Students’ Union until they have been approved with the required participation at the AGM and ratified by the Trustee Board.
Attending the AGM
The AGM is open to all members of the Students’ Union in-person or online.
If you would like to come in-person, it is due to take place in Faraday LT. Please remember to bring your student ID to verify your Students’ Union membership.
If you are unavailable, you can arrange for a fellow member of the Students’ Union to vote on your behalf. You can apply for a proxy here. (deadline: 3pm, Monday 15th June).
