These describe how results are achieved. Motions to Council 1. Council rejects the Bett proposals for use of annual individual appraisal to determine prograession along a salary scale. Council notes that, after reasonable assumptions on inflation, none of the Bett suggestions on salary levels fully catch up with our comparators. Though Council supports a significantly higher starting salary, Council believes that the proposal to reward professors moree than the rest is divisive and will tend to reinforce the RAE pressure to concentrate on research at the expense of all the other aspects of academic work.
Council rejects such a division as a criterion for determining grades, as proposed in the report.
