- Motion text
UCU is committed to promote and defend the quality of working life of its members. Cuts in public expenditure, alternative priorities of employing institutions, the marketisation of education and attempts to privatise academic activity, all represent threats to the public provision of higher education and consequently to both the quality of that provision and the jobs and terms and conditions of our members.
HESC instructs the HEC to provide the fullest support to local associations and branches in resisting moves to privatise academic and associated work and to ensure that a nationally co-ordinated campaign is conducted to maximise UCU's opposition against such privatisation of higher education.
