Background

The first incarnation of an official working group for environmental issues on campus began in August 1995 as the Environmental Policy Working Party. The first task of this group was the development of an Environmental Policy, which was completed in 1997.  The Policy was revised and subject to consultation in 2006, with approval being granted by the Vice-Chancellor in September of that year.  In 2009 some minor changes were made to the policy to reflect changes in legislation. Later, this group became the Environmental Management Working Party (EMWP), whose goal it was to implement the Policy. As of 2003, the EMWP has gained the more formal status of the Environmental Policy Committee.
