Date: Sun, 18 Oct 2009 14:20:48 -0400 From: Alex Dehnert <adehnert@MIT.EDU> To: =?windows-1252?Q?Jont=E9_Craighead?= <jontec@mit.edu> CC: UA Senate <ua-senate@mit.edu> In-Reply-To: <87DF24CC-04EC-4EAA-B541-96C029C058A3@mit.edu> The intent was to allow non-committee (eg, Senate) money to be reallocated as well, though that may not have been reflected very well... "may reallocate funds from a committee" should probably become / have been "may reallocate funds from one part of the UA budget" and "That such reallocations must be approved by the committee chair losing said funds; and" should probably be "That such reallocations must be approved by the committee chair or other officer in charge of the budget area losing said funds; and" If Paul doesn't object, I can make that change now, or I can wait until Monday and officially propose an amendment. ~~Alex Jonté Craighead wrote: > Just a quick question: > > Could the name perhaps be changed to "Bill to Authorize the Treasurer to > Reallocate Committee Money to Student Groups"? > > I do not think that the current title really captures the intent of the > bill (i.e. the title makes it seem as though it is a very broad measure > whereas the actual bill has a more focused scope).
