The committee meets at least twice a term. Meetings may be called by the Dean or Deputy Dean as required.
The Committee is responsible for the monitoring of the Faculty's activities as reported by the Research Committee, the Undergraduate Committee and the Postgraduate Committee, and any sub-committees, representative of the whole Faculty, that it shall establish to advise it on other matters, such as admissions and the provision of information technology.
The committee advises the Dean on:
- general policy matters
- the attainment of the Faculty objectives, priorities and plans, subject to overall University policy and priorities
- the allocation of the Faculty's recurrent and equipment funds to its constituent Departments and other spending units; the formulation of Departmental and other budgets and determination of priorities in the use of particular resources in support of research and teaching (including selective use of staff time, staff development, consumables, space and other physical facilities).
