Policy
What is Policy?
Policy is the collective view of the members of Warwick SU. Policy can only be made through a democratic decision-making body, namely General Meeting, Referendum and Union Council. These bodies are here to represent your views. All policy is retained on the Union’s Policy File for two years after which time it comes up for review by Union Council when it can be renewed, renewed with amendment or lapsed. Policy passed at a General Meeting can only be overturned or amended at a further General Meeting, policy passed at Referendum can be overturned or amended at a General Meeting or a further Referendum and Policy passed at Union Council can be overturned or amended at a General Meeting, Referendum or a further Union Council meeting.
In order to ensure the long term financial stability of Warwick SU any business concerning revenue or expenditure requires an accompanying financial plan. Advice on how to write policy and any associated financial plan is available from the Democracy Officer or the Democratic Services Office. See right for contact details.
Once business has been submitted it will be checked at a meeting of the Steering Committee. This meeting will check the items for grammatical errors as well as legal compliance. You will be informed of the time and venue of this meeting upon receipt of your items and invited to attend.
