…h Activate Policy (Primary Signatories) (#15)

# Rationale

- This is to bring practice in-line with current ActivateUTS policies
and procedures.
- The constitution currently mentions Secretary (now CEO), but they will
only act in extraordinary circumstances...
- According to ActivateUTS policy, there must be one "Primary Signatory"
(Pres or *as elected*; not for the time being or acting) for every
transaction;
- Basically this ensures a UTS student is accountable, as President +
Treasurer must be students at time of election according to Activate.
- If either Primary signatory are absent, we would need the Clubs
Manager to co-sign to approve the transaction otherwise it would be
blocked (and therefore unable to resolve any debts). Despite the
constitution investing transaction ability in any two trustees.
- A vote by the Executive Committee to request the Clubs Manager's
signature would resolve the 'crisis'
