Administrative Unit Convocation [2] (1986 - )

From: 1986
Summary: From 1998, the power to amend all legislation was withdrawn, and Convocation lost its right to elect members of Council. These changes arose from the 1997 Ministerial Committee of Enquiry into the Governance of Victorian Universities. Nevertheless, the Committee continues to receive reports of legislation as of other matters, and to further keep it in touch with University affairs, the President is invited to Council meetings, and the Committee to joint briefing sessions. The Committee's support for the University, and interest in its affairs as it passes through times of momentous change, are undiminished.
