Agenda and papers

Any member of the University staff may apply to the executive officer to receive agendas and papers for the public section of any meeting of the Board. View the agendas, papers and minutes of the Board.

Part A of the agenda is discussed. Part B items that require approval are automatically approved unless a member requests that an item be brought forward to Part A. Part C is the confidential, public-excluded part of the agenda. Part C agendas and papers are only made available to members.

Notice of meeting and attendance

The executive officer distributes the agenda and papers by email to all members five business days prior to the meeting. Non-members are welcome to attend meetings, except when public-excluded items are discussed. All attendees are asked to sign an attendance register that is circulated at each meeting.

If a dean, head of school, or student member is not able to attend a meeting, they should notify the executive officer at academic-board@vuw.ac.nz. The convener may allow another member to attend in the absent member’s stead.

Special meetings

A special meeting of the Board may be called at any time by the University Council or the Vice-Chancellor/Convener. A special meeting can also be requested by six members, who should write to the executive officer outlining the matter to be discussed.
