Following an extensive review of Senate committees in 2009, major changes to the committee structure were implemented in 2010.
The role of the Nominations Committee was, on a case-by-case basis, to identify
(i) persons who might be suitable for nomination/ suggestion to the Minister in the category of “six external persons appointed by the Minister” and
(ii) persons who might be suitable for the category “one external person appointed by the Senate”, and then make recommendations to Senate.
Its membership comprised: Ex officio: The Chancellor (chair) The Deputy Chancellor The Vice-Chancellor and Principal The Chair of the Academic Board
Three fellows who were external persons (within the meaning of section 9(9) of the Act), appointed to the committee by the Senate.
The Nominations Committee did not meet in 2010 before being disestablished.
