On 12 September 2023 the Vice-Chancellor approved on behalf of Senate with immediate effect and in advance of the start of the 2023-24 academic year, amendments to Regulation 45 Governing Payment of Annual Fees, Residential Charges and Other Debts, to reflect current processes i.e. that since the Covid-19 pandemic students are no longer required to appear before the Annual Fees (Special Cases) Sub-Committee, rather they are invited to submit a written statement and/or payment proposal for consideration by the Sub-Committee.
