    As anyone who has ever dealt with the union's finance system will be well aware, it is less than effective, the delays and the distinct lack of a common sense system - provide for a difficult circumstance. Solution: Buy a MSL module so that society and club finance can be streamlined to save staff time and be a more up to date system that will bring the union in line with it competitors and not stuck in the 80’s with a system that just wastes everyone's time.

Got my vote!
