Amendments to the ISSU Assemblies Procedure

The ISSU Assemblies Procedure is the document that governs the organisation and execution of an ISSU Assembly, namely An Chomhdháil Bhlianintiúl.

Since the last Chomhdháil Bhlianintiúl, amendments have been made to the Assemblies Procedure by the Coiste Gnó.

These changes must be approved at the beginning of An Chomhdháil Bhlianintiúl 2025 by delegates. Until it is adopted, the previous Assemblies Procedure is followed.

The proposed Assemblies Procedure and the current Assemblies Procedure can be found here.
