- Motion text
Congress notes that:
1. UEA UCU has been notified about the potential for mass redundancies affecting every sector of the University.
2. The scale and nature of these redundancies threaten the institution and the wider Norfolk community, amounting to nothing less than cultural vandalism.
Congress resolves to:
a. Support UEA UCU with all means available, and explore all avenues possible to save jobs at UEA, including, where and when appropriate, grey-listing.
b. At the branch’s advice, as soon as a dispute is called, for it to be considered a local dispute of national importance.
c. Publicise the threat of compulsory redundancies at UEA and call UCU branches and other trades unions to support UEA UCU.
i. Invite UCU branches and the wider trades union movement to contribute to the UEA UCU hardship fund associated with the local dispute.
