Draft Constitution
for
MTU Students' Union

MTU Cork SU and MTU Kerry SU have been working together on a constitution for a potential merged union. The constitution outlines how the Students' Union would operate, govern and represent you in the case of a merged union. So we would appreciate you taking a few minutes to have a look through it. This draft constitution is open to students from 13th of February until the 6th of March. During this timeframe students can request any changes and amendments on the document by emailing Students' Union President, Cian McGrath: supresidentkerry@mtu.ie
