University of Galway Students' Union

[citation needed] The union also part funds Sin Newspaper and Flirt FM.

[citation needed] It consists of fifteen elected members, whose responsibilities cover different student concerns - from educational issues to accommodation and discrimination.

[citation needed] The re-establishment of the body was proposed in the auditor's inaugural address in November 1913.

The council was firmly established by the mid-1920s, and in the 1960s was formally developed into the university's Students' Union, then known as Comhairle Teachta na Mac Léinn.

Restructured in 1964 in the Students' Union (although retaining the Irish Comhairle Teacha na Mac Léinn until later years), the function of the union as per the constitution is "to represent its members and promote, defend and vindicate the rights of its members at all levels of society".
