BPSA seeks to update its constitution

The British Pharmaceutical Students' Association is proposing to adopt an amended version of its constitution at its annual conference, to be held in Bradford from 6 to 15 April.

The proposed changes have little practical effect but are designed to bring the constitution into line with the modernisation of the Royal Pharmaceutical Society.

The BPSA is the official student section of the Society, established under its Byelaws (which are in the process of being replaced with new Regulations).

The proposal for a new constitution follows a review by a working group drawn from the BPSA executive and the Society’s staff. This group was part of a wider review by the Society of its relationship with the student body.

A proposed amendment to the BPSA constitution must meet the approval of at least two-thirds of those present and voting at the association’s annual conference. It must then be ratified by the Society’s Council before coming into force on a date agreed by the Council and the BPSA executive.

The proposed new constitution can be viewed at the “About us” section of the BPSA website (www.bpsa.com).
