We can also quote him word for word from a meeting with all staff on 1st July.

“I do want to emphasises the fact that it’s a pure voluntary severance scheme.

It will not be followed by a redundancy scheme.

There is no secret Plan B.”

We have voted to force management to rule out the use of compulsory redundancies.

The result demonstrates the anger & disappointment with the lack of progress and failure of successive leaderships at the University to deliver a sustainable way forward that protects jobs and the University’s future.

Senate too also needs to advise Court on this appointment.

But Senate has not been asked to meet before Court will make its decision.
