3 You should receive a response from the Student Officer Committee within 5 working days after the receipt of the appeal. If you are not satisfied with the action taken by the Student Officer Committee, or you do not hear anything within the time limit, you may then appeal in writing to the next meeting of the Union Council.

4 If you are not satisfied with the action taken to remedy your complaint, by Union Council or more than 20 working days have elapsed since your initial complaint to the Communications Officer, you may then appeal in writing to the Dean of Students.
