Meetings
The Representative Council has meetings around once a month during academic terms, either in HYY’s own premises or in the University’s facilities on different campuses. The meetings begin at 5 pm, with executive Board’s question hour is held before the meeting from 4.30 pm onwards. The meeting agendas are published at least one week before the meeting on HYY’s noticeboard. Due to the coronavirus, meetings are organised using remote connections until further notice.
The Representative Council meetings can be viewed live as either Zoom webinars or Facebook Live broadcasts. Recordings of the meetings can also be found on HYY’s Youtube channel.
There are several different groups which act within the Representative Council and their meetings involve lively political discussion.
