Bylaw and Policy Committee

What have we been working on?
In general, the Bylaw and Policy Committee reviews the Society’s policy manual and by-laws, and makes recommendations to the GSS on all matters pertaining to these areas. The Committee ensures the continued transparent and accountable governance of the Graduate Student Society and its various services in the ongoing interest of its members.
The bylaw amendments proposed by the Bylaw and Policy Committee all require approval at our Annual or Semi-Annual General Meeting. You can find out about the most recent bylaw amendments by visiting gss.uvic.ca/agm to see the last bylaw amendments approved by the membership.
Please also additional time after the AGM or SAGM to see revised bylaws on our Governance Documents page, as staff need time to format the revised versions. For complete copies of our policy manual and bylaws, check out https://gss.uvic.ca/about-gss/forms/governance-documents/
