NUS Extraordinary Conference

Wednesday was the NUS extraordinary conference in Wolverhampton Civic Hall. An extraordinary conference is basically an emergency conference which is called in between annual conferences.

The purpose of this conference was to discuss NUS Reform, which I have blogged about on a number of occasions previously.

The Guild passed policy to support the changes that the conference aimed to implement, and I am happy to tell you that the proposals had overwhelming support, and passed with an 82% majority.

There were also many amendments made to the proposals, including a National Ballot, where 5% of NUS membership could request a vote.
