Pay For Staff In Higher Education

EDM number 1436 in 2001-02, proposed by Ian Gibson on 13/06/2002.

That this House believes that higher education staff should be congratulated for maintaining high levels of quality in teaching and research while significantly increasing the number of university students; notes that this achievement occurred through a time of serious under-funding of higher education; further notes that academic pay has risen by just seven per cent. since 1980 while average earnings have increased by 44 per cent.; therefore calls on the Government to increase public investment in higher education in the spending review; and urges university employers to reward their staff with a significant pay rise in the current pay negotiations with the Association of University Teachers and other trade unions.

This motion has been signed by a total of 78 MPs.
