Each year there should be a minimum of 5 student council meetings although there are often more. At student council only the chairs of the standing committees, one SVR (student voice representative) from each faculty and the executives having speaking and voting rights, unless the chair uses their discretion to allow a student at the council meeting to speak or if it is an enfranchised student who has proposed the policy proposal. Any enfranchised student may propose or second a policy proposal and then speak on their proposal at student council. All policy proposals must have 10 signatures from enfranchised students who agree with the proposal.
