Base Funding Review

October 2010: The Minister for Tertiary Education, Senator Chris Evans, announced a Higher Education Base Funding Review, to be chaired by Dr Jane Lomax-Smith (former SA Education Minister).

December 2010: Background and consultation papers were released.

April 2011: NTEU submissions.

December 2011: The final report released: www.deewr.gov.au/BaseFundingReview

February 2012: NTEU responds.

The focus on funding arises from the Federal Government’s response to Bradley Review of Higher Education, the ‘Transforming Australia’s Higher Education System’ package, released in May 2009. Part of that package was a commitment to commission a review of the base funding levels for learning and teaching in higher education to ensure that funding levels remain internationally competitive and appropriate for the sector.
