    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.

1:23pm on 9 Oct 17 As someone who works constantly on both sides of the system both putting in requests as a committee member and then also as a member of staff keeping the books for all societies, I think this system would vastly improve accuracy and the time taken to deal with requests. Got my vote!
