Pirate Congress 2015/Constitutional Amendments

Constitutional amendment proposals must be presented to the National Council a minimum of 28 days before the National Congress, which this year is Friday 26 June 2015 at 11:59 pm (AEST) as per By-law 2013-03. Proposals submitted after that date will be held over until the following National Congress. Please email your proposals to [mailto:secretary@pirateparty.org.au secretary@pirateparty.org.au].

If you wish to propose a change to anything here: please open a discussion topic on the forum, directly contact the person who put the amendment, or alternatively contact the Secretary at secretary@pirateparty.org.au to put you in contact.

Once the deadline for proposals has been met, unless specified by the relevant by-law, amendments may only be made by formal motion at the National Congress.
