評議會消息：評議會主席黃浩揚匯報學生會憲章修訂建議
【學苑專訊】評議會第九次常務會議昨日（10 月 20 日）下午五時在評議會議事廳召開。會上評議會主席兼修憲委員會主席黃浩揚匯報本年學生會憲章修訂建議。
學生會憲章修訂建議分三部分：其一為格式和統一性（Format and Consistency），例如將憲章內所有 「Full Members of the Union」字眼改為「Union Full Members」；其二為評議會架構重組（Union Council Restructuring）；其三為關於校園電視部分的修訂，包括將「Creative Director」重新命名為「Art Director」。
其中黃浩揚稱第二部分關於評議會架構重組的修訂是最具爭議的地方。此部分主要有三處修訂：第一，憲章第七章第六條評議會組成（Composition）將改作第四條，刪去「The following shall be Members of the Union Council」，並新增「The following shall be Union Councillors」及「The following shall be Official Observers」的條文。準附屬（partially affiliated）舍堂宿生會/學生會代表及準附屬代表院會代表將被明文規定成為法定觀察員，去屆會長亦會由評議員變成法定觀察員一員。〔1〕憲章裏「Member of the Union Council」的字眼亦會改作「Union Councillor」。
第二，憲章第七章將新增描述評議員及法定觀察員權力的部分，在憲章明文界定評議會主席、榮譽秘書、其他評議員及法定觀察員發言、動議、和議及投票的權力。〔2〕
第三，評議會組成的條文裏將刪去學苑總編輯及校園電視主席後「non-voting」的字眼，意味校園傳媒的代表將在評議會重新獲得投票權。
