**Proposal.** Constitutional amendment: [Remove constant from General Meeting Quorum](https://github.com/UQComputingSociety/constitution/pull/51).

The motion passed with 40 Yea votes, 0 Nay votes and 0 objections.

**Proposal.** Constitutional amendment: [Stacking of Elections](https://github.com/UQComputingSociety/constitution/pull/52).
- This change will require people to be members of UQCS for two weeks before a general meeeting in order to vote (or otherwise participate, which largely means running for election or moving motion). This adds a small hurdle to prevent stacking in future elections.
