provided that the Provident Fund provision

be amended so that a man recruited at about

30 to a professorship might retire at the

age of 55 with a sum of not less than

£10,000 to his credit in the Provident Fund.

Resolved (nem con)

(a) that the Court considers it desirable

to restore, as soon as financial circumstances

permit, the equivalent of the Gollan scale

of salaries to those members of the staff

who are entitled to that scale, and that the

Finance Committee be asked to consider the

possibility of effecting this by a revision

of the terms of the Provident Fund;

(b) that the attempt to apply differential

scales of pay when recruitment is made by a

Committee in London acting as advisers to

the University would still further narrow

the already restricted area of recruitment.

XXIII. Paragraph 77. Resolved (nem con) that contracts for all

men appointed hereafter provide that the

normal retiring age of lecturers and

professors be 55 and that extension from

year to year up to the age of 60 be permitted

only if the University desires to retain the

services of a lecturer or professor, on

condition that the proviso to the proposal under Report paragraph 69 is accepted.
