Motion text

Congress notes with concern the limited involvement of Academic Related staff in union structures during the transitional year.

This has coincided with the continuing implementation of the Pay Framework Agreement, a process which has disproportionately disadvantaged AR staff, who have been red-circled in large numbers.

Congress calls on the NEC to reconstitute the Academic Related committee, applying statutory standing orders based on those in operation for other specialist groups, and to provide substantial support to this committee, particularly to enable investigation of the inequitable implementation of the PFA, and to challenge institutions to improve.

We further call for another general meeting of AR staff to be organised in 2007-08, to take place as soon as possible after Congress, part of its remit being to reform the AR Committee. A further meeting should take place before Congress in 2008, and this should be the first Annual Meeting of Academic Related Staff.
