| Admin History | The Planning Committee was a permanent Sub-Committee of the Council set up in Feb 1957. In July 1987 the Planning Committee was merged with the Finance and General Purposes Committee to form the Planning and Resources Committee. The mandate of the new Committee was to concern itself with all matters relating to the finances of the College, authorise expenditure limits, authorise changes to the terms and conditions of staff, manage investments, advise Council with regards to the development of land and buildings, allocation of College accommodation and the consideration of other general matters that do not fall within the remit of other Standing Committees. Under the new Committee were 5 sub-committees: the Bar Sub-Committee, the Investments Sub-Committee, the Budget Sub-Committee, the Domestic Sub-Committee, and the Joint Committee on Staffing. This last sub-committee was also a standing committee of the Academic Board. |
