18th - EGM held to replace Treasurer and 2 positions on Helpdesk. Treasurer position filled by Amy Corrigan (corriga6).

Only 2 of these however got passed, these being the addition of a First Year Rep to committee and making having to pass the Helpdesk test compulsory. The proposed change to reduce the number of Helpdesk/Education Officers from one to three was defeated. | 18th - EGM held to replace Treasurer and 2 positions on Helpdesk.
