  1. To approve minor changes to the document which stipulates the information concerning jobs within administration and university services [Relación de Puestos de Trabajo del Personal Administrativo y Servicios de la Universidad], which do not incur an additional financial cost to that foreseen within Chapter 1 of the university budget for the corresponding financial year.
  2. To approve the renewal of borrowing operations agreed upon in the social council plenary session.
  3. To approve the transfer of capital expenditure to any other section of the university’s expenses budget, providing the sum does not exceed 120,000 euros or that the transfer does not require the prior approval of the regional government.
  4. To report on the agreements in place between the university and health-care institutions.
  5. To approve the economic viability assessments of the study programmes.
  6. To stipulate the key criteria for the creation of the university budget, prior to its approval by the government department responsible for the university, providing that said criteria adhere to the Multi-annual Strategic Plan previously submitted by the Social Council plenary.

  8. To approve additional expenses or amendments to pre-existing expenses with regards to the price of university services during the current budgetary year.
  9. To approve studies or reports which aim to promote the provision of university courses which respond to the demands of society, in accordance with the guidelines on this issue established by the council’s plenary in its Action Plan or similar.
  10. To adopt initiatives for the improvement of the quality and efficiency of activities carried out by the university, in accordance with the policy areas established by the plenary.
