1.5 Confidential Items

1.5.1 Vice-Chancellor’s Issues and Speculations

Gippsland School of Engineering

Adjunct Professor Alan Seale, Chairman of the Gippsland School of Engineering Review Panel was in attendance for this item.

The Vice-Chancellor introduced Professor Seale noting that Professor Seale, an Adjunct Professor in the Department of Chemical Engineering, had chaired the review panel. Membership of the review panel included:

  • Ms Alison Crook AO

  • Professor Gary Bouma

  • Adjunct Professor Alan Seale (Chairman)

  • Professor Rao Kotagiri

  • Professor Brendon Parker

  • Mr Ian Nethercote

  • Mr Jonathon Dyson

Professor Seale outlined the review process including the use of the outcomes contained in the report titled Gippsland School of Engineering – The Way Forward: Report of the Task Force, August 2002 as a basis for inviting submissions from staff and students, community groups, all levels of government, professional bodies and local (Gippsland) industry. Further, a series of meetings/forums were held with community groups, industry representatives, the Pro Vice-Chancellor, Gippsland, members of federal, state and local government and a wide range of students and staff.

Following an outline of the major recommendations contained in the report, Professor Seale commended to Council the proposal to request the Faculty of Engineering to evaluate the alternate courses of action as presented in Chapter 12 of the report noting the recommendation that any continuation of undergraduate teaching would need to be supported by a full academic review of the program.

Concluding his presentation, Professor Seale outlined to Council a range of difficulties with staff and inappropriate management practices that were identified within the Gippsland School of Engineering.

Members provided the following comments following referral of the report to Council:

  • several members praised the review panel for the way in which the review was conducted, the professionalism of the panel members and the constructive outcomes of the review process;

  • the need to adopt strategies that would, if possible, increase the number of Higher Degree by Research students at the campus;  

  • a member queried whether it would be possible to include some of the members of the review panel in the next phase of the process. In response, the Vice-Chancellor informed Council that the panel members had committed an enormous amount of time and effort to the process just completed and that it would be inappropriate to ask them to continue with the next phase, however, other distinguished members of the Gippsland community would be contacted in relation to the next phase of the review;

  • a member suggested that the issue of inappropriate management practices be considered separately from the review process. The Chancellor agreed with this; and

  • a member commented that given the issue of inappropriate management practices, staff from the Gippsland School of Engineering should be excluded from direct involvement in the next phase of the review process.

At the invitation of the Chancellor, the Vice-Chancellor outlined the next phase of the process.

The Vice-Chancellor noted that it would be necessary to develop a proposal that was attractive to prospective students, supported by the faculty, was financially viable, or if not, one that the University community would agree to subsidise.

Summarising the discussion, the Chancellor recommended that the Report of the Gippsland School of Engineering Review Panel be referred to the faculty where, with the assistance of external stakeholders, a preferred model for "engineering" at the Gippsland Campus would be developed, referred to the Vice-Chancellor’s Group and then considered at a future meeting of Council.

RESOLUTION CL2/2003/14

Council noted the Report of the Gippsland School of Engineering Review Panel and referred the report to the Faculty of Engineering where, in consultation with external stakeholders, a model be developed for "engineering" at the Gippsland Campus which would then be submitted to the Vice-Chancellor’s Group and then to a future meeting of Council.

For action or noting by: Dean, Faculty of Engineering, Chairman of the Gippsland School of Engineering Review Panel, Pro Vice-Chancellor, Gippsland Campus

South Africa

Professor John Anderson, Pro Vice-Chancellor, South Africa, was invited to address Council.

Professor Anderson informed Council that the intake of student numbers had progressed from 57 students in 2001 to 165 in 2002 to 340 in 2003 (over 300 EFTSU) with 25 nationalities represented on the campus. Other aspects raised by Professor Anderson included:

  • an expectation that student numbers would continue to increase;

  • accreditation and registration of current courses expired at the end of 2003. Documentation for reaccreditation had been prepared and the outcome would be known by July/August;

  • documentation for any new courses planned for the next two years needed to be lodged by May;

  • planning had commenced for a small graduation ceremony at the end of 2003;

  • all student residences were fully occupied;

  • a playing field had been established; and

  • external groups were beginning to use the campus facilities.

Concluding his presentation, Professor Anderson informed Council that the groundwork was in place to support the planned increase in student numbers.

In response to questions, Professor Anderson informed Council that while the number of non-South African students studying at the campus was significant, external parties had not expressed a view either way on the matter, that the bulk of students were fee-paying and that sound links had been established on the campus between teaching and research activities. Other aspects discussed included the introduction of new courses and that a new set of 10 year projection figures would be developed.

RESOLUTION CL2/2003/15

Council noted the advice of Professor John Anderson, Pro Vice-Chancellor, South Africa on recent developments at Monash South Africa Campus.

4. Vice-Chancellor’s Business

4.1 Triple Bottom Line Reporting Project

Professor Chris Cocklin, Director, Monash Environment Institute, and Ms Belinda Towns, Project Manager, Triple Bottom Line Reporting, were in attendance for the item.

Professor Cocklin informed Council that the report was a pilot project focussing on Gippsland and Clayton Campuses utilising existing data such as electricity use and emissions, land use, staff retention and academic performance reviews and development plans to report on performance for 2001.

Outlining the strategic effects of the report, Professor Cocklin noted that the Triple Bottom Line Report 2001 was the first to be completed by an Australian University and one of the first in the world, that it facilitated a broader understanding of triple bottom line concepts, acknowledged the achievements in the area by the Monash community and highlighted areas for potential improvement.

Following discussion, Professor Cocklin informed Council that the next report would incorporate all Australian campuses and that any outstanding audit issues would be addressed. Further, members noted that it would be desirable to incorporate the outcomes of triple bottom line reporting each year into the Annual Report to Parliament noting that it was important to incorporate triple bottom line reporting into major activities of the University – it must not stand alone.

The Chancellor thanked Professor Cocklin and Ms Belinda Towns for their efforts in overseeing the triple bottom line project

RESOLUTION CL2/2003/18

Council received and commented on the Triple Bottom Line Reporting Project.

4.2 Development and Implementation of the Monash University Marketing Plan

Ms Meredith Jackson, Executive Director, Marketing and Public Affairs, informed Council of recent progress in the development and implementation of the Monash University Marketing Plan. Ms Jackson noted that the plan identified the key marketing issues for Monash, provided broad strategies to address the issues and introduced a number of performance measures for monitoring the plan and to assist measuring the impact of Monash’s marketing effort.

The Chancellor thanked Ms Jackson and all involved with the development of the plan and invited Council members to comment. Noting the importance of this aspect of the University’s operation and the wide range of targeted audiences, the importance of alumni and alumni groups was emphasised and it was suggested that particular attention be paid to broadening and strengthening linkages with this section of the Monash community.

4.3 2002 Annual Report to Parliament of the Council of Monash University

Prior to discussion of the item, the Chancellor brought to the attention of Council, a recent article published in a Melbourne newspaper that inaccurately reported the 2002 financial position of the University. The Chancellor noted that the confidentiality of the Annual Report to Parliament was an absolute necessity until it was tabled in Parliament and that every effort must be made to ensure that confidential matters remained confidential until such time as the information was officially released.

A revised statement of the "Consolidated Financial Statements for the year ended 31 December 2002" was distributed to the members prior to the commencement of the meeting.

Ms Alison Crook, Deputy Vice-Chancellor (Resources), provided Council with an update on the Consolidated Financial Statements of the University noting that the University would report at least a consolidated surplus of approximately $800,000. Sworn valuations for real estate in South Africa had yet to be finalised, however, any change in the valuation was expected to further increase the consolidated surplus of the University.

Other aspects discussed of the 2002 Annual Report, including the Consolidated Financial Statements, included:

  • the report considered by Resources and Finance Committee of a "Stress Test" of the University’s balance sheets;

  • that the qualification of the University’s accounts, along with all other University accounts, in relation to an unfunded superannuation liability would not occur in 2002; and

  • referring to the query relating to the carrying value of the investments of Monash Commercial in two controlled entities, members were informed that the issue had been satisfactorily resolved with the external auditors.

The Chancellor thanked all concerned with the preparation of the Annual Report and noted that provided resolution of the remaining issue relating to valuation of real estate in South Africa resulted in the reported surplus or an improved surplus, then the financial statements should be adopted.

RESOLUTION CL2/2003/20

Council adopted the University’s Consolidated Financial Statements for the year ended 31 December 2002 subject to the valuation of real estate in South Africa resulting in the reported or an increased consolidated surplus for the University.
