Based on confusion that the current C&S Committee had around what endorsement of removal would entail and the impacts of this, making a recommendation to restructure this to fall inline with our resultant understanding.

Making note that the C&S Model Constitution as stands currently (updated August 2023) uses the same wording as our constitution does currently. Personally, I'd be of the opinion to keep it as is unless (or more seemingly when) the model constitution is updated.

I think it would be best to table this until the AGM, for two reasons:

  • As Jimmothy has pointed out, the current wording of the UQCS Constitution matches that of C&S Model Constitution. I would hope that, given their position on this clause UQCS Constitution, the C&S Committee would have the corresponding clause in the C&S Model Constitution updated in the near future. I'd like to see what wording they use for this update. Given Quinn's influence in the C&S Committee, I wouldn't be surprised if it was the wording used in the PR.
  • Currently, Section Nine is actively use. It's generally bad practice to change a clause in the constitution in this situation. For example, the Union has similar prohibitions against changing election regulations during elections (R109).

I don't see any particular urgency in this amendment, as I would hope that Section Nine wouldn't be invoked again before the AGM.
