After general discussions on the work of the Panel, the outcome of the review and some initial feedback, Council agreed that it would immediately conduct an intensive consultation exercise with members of the University and the wider communities which it serves (as envisaged by the Panel), before reaching any decision on how to take the recommendations of the Report forward. The consultation will last for two months from February 15 to April 15, 2003, and will be conducted by an Ad Hoc Task Group whose remit is to reach out to all stakeholders and to collect their views on the Panel's proposed package of reform. The Task Group will organise open forums for students, staff and alumni, and attend meetings with stakeholder groups during the two-month intensive period of consultation, and will report back to Council on its findings at a meeting on April 29, 2003.
