(1)    Each of the following is a ground for terminating, under this instrument, a student's enrolment in a program for a research award:

(a)    that the student has not pursued the program to the Delegated Authority's satisfaction;

(b)    that the student has otherwise breached this instrument or any requirement applying to the program that is determined by the University and published on its website;

(c)    that the student has breached a condition imposed on the student's admission to the program.

(2)    If the Delegated Authority believes that a ground exists for terminating, under this instrument, the student's enrolment in the program, the Delegated Authority may, in writing, recommend to the Associate Dean that the student's enrolment be terminated.

(3)    Before acting on the recommendation, the Associate Dean must, by written notice given to the student, tell the student:

(6)    If, after considering any representations made by the student in accordance with this section, the Associate Dean is satisfied that a ground exists for terminating, under this instrument, the student's enrolment in the program, the Associate Dean may terminate the student's enrolment in the program.

(7)    Within 10 working days after the day the Associate Dean makes a decision under this section, the Registrar must tell the student in writing about the decision.
[Note: For the service (however described) of notices and other documents, see the Legislation Statute, section 24.]
