The principles are as follows:</p><p> Central committees (committees of Council, Senate and their sub-committees) should use the unique, designated letter-codes, examples of which are provided in Appendix 1 below.</p><p> Minutes and committee papers should be numbered consecutively per (academic) yearly cycle.</p><p> Year numbering for minutes and papers should run from the beginning of the academic year, rather than the calendar year (better reflecting administrative cycles, the inauguration of new committees and terms of reference, reducing scope for confusion between year and number of paper/minute). </p><p> Examples of numbering are provided in Appendix 2.</p><p>Papers are thus assigned a reference when received by a committee and circulated as an agendum.
