Council Sub-Committees
The below list includes all Council sub-committee terms of reference and membership lists. Some of these committees are statutory committees required to ensure the University is legally and regulatory compliant, others have a strategic or operational focus.
The Standing Orders for committees are the rules on the way in which the business of those committees, in particular the Council, the Senate and their sub-committees, are conducted, for example, rules of debate, methods of voting, powers of the chair, etc. They have been created for all sub-committees to simplify and standardise the approach, while allowing for individual committee requirements where needed.
Information on committees that report to both Council and Senate (Joint Committees) can be seen further down this page.
