¹û¶³Ó°Ôº

Conflicts of interest, be they perceived or real, can cause immense damage to organisations as well as individual reputations.

One of the ways ¹û¶³Ó°Ôº seeks to avoid such conflicts arising is by requiring all staff to register interests that could be reasonably regarded as having the potential to conflict with their work at ¹û¶³Ó°Ôº. The Declaration of Interest policy is designed to protect individual staff as much as the University and declarations should be registered ().

The system contains two sections:

General Declarations - all staff, Grade 6 and above

This section is to register external activities and other transactions, as detailed in .

Activities should be registered as and when they occur, if you have interests to declare please login and register them as soon as you are able.

Consultancy - all academic staff

This section is to register consultancy returns, which will allow individuals undertaking consultancy and their departments to more easily monitor consultancy activity, in accordance with ¹û¶³Ó°Ôº's Consultancy Guidelines (¹û¶³Ó°Ôº login required).

Further details will be forwarded to Heads of Department from the Vice-Provost (Enterprise) office.

Further information

Declarations should be registered on an annual basis following the financial year - 1 August to 31 July, all declarations should be made as soon as you are able.
