In accordance with the current Constitution, which reads:
Amendments to the constitution may only be made at the AGM or EGM.
Any proposal to amend the Constitution must be given to the Secretary in writing with the justification and proposed text of the amendment. These details must then be circulated with the notice of the meeting.
Any proposal to amend the Constitution requires a 2/3 majority vote of the Committee Members present.
