Current Situation: Mr D’s interference with disciplinary procedures

As Deputy Vice Chancellor (Deputy Director), Director of Staffing, you appear to have been given unprecedented authority over a senior lecturer’s academic tenure, employment situation and employment/ livelihood prospects since 1998, and with no opposition from the unions or English legal profession, and in contravention of the University’s mandatory procedures, Articles of Government and relevant Statutory Acts. We wonder why?
Your actions continue to the present day and include:

4) duress and undue influence and your ongoing failure to bring to the authorities’ attention the senior academic’s grievance about this (see enclosure), and your ongoing failure to admit to your own role and that of others in the destruction of his/her vocation, career, employment and livelihood.

Your actions continue to the present day and include:

3) improper interference in an improper disciplinary process, which includes duress and undue influence on 4 Nov 1998, and at a time when you knew the senior academic to be ill and unfit, and about which the senior lecturer raised a grievance in writing at the time, but which has still not been heard. It also includes negligent and derogatory statements about the senior academic transmitted to third parties and without his/her knowledge on 5-6 Nov 1998. No meeting has so far been scheduled to discuss all matters relating to the senior academic’s situation and a letter written by you, and purporting to terminate his/her contract on 4 Jan 1999, has not been properly referenced /authorised (see enclosures).

Your actions continue to the present day and include:

2) improper implementation of improper disciplinary procedures against a senior lecturer whom you know is being bullied and victimised on account of his/her raising of a grievance which has still not been addressed or remedied. The letter informing him/her of disciplinary action and sent to his/her home address is not properly referenced/authorised, contains no enclosures about procedures or appeals, and has not been withdrawn. In contravention of mandatory and statutory procedures, it was written before hearing him/her and before a full investigation. The disciplinary procedures have still not been completed and the senior academic has still not been heard on all matters, including the improper suspension and his/her grievance raised immediately prior to the suspension (see enclosures)
