Crisis Management Committee

The Crisis Management Committee was established on 29 January 2020 and comprised University Executive members with expertise and/or responsibilities relevant to aspects of the COVID-19 crisis. As part of
this work the following groups were established to manage particular University aspects of the crisis and provide information, including:
− the Academic Response Team (renamed Semester 1 Planning group late 2020) was responsible for the management of the ongoing academic operations (teaching and research) at the University; and
− the Operational Response Team was responsible for the management of ongoing business operations (ie, facilities and building maintenance, technology and of other professional service units). This included
ensuring buildings were maintained, cleaned and ready for staff and students. For buildings that were not closed, the priorities included ensuring hand sanitiser and hygiene products were made available to staff and students.
