[Academic] URGENT request: Priorities for Return and Resume of laboratory research activity

[Paul McKenna]

*For action by 3pm today, if relevant to you.*

Dear All,

Following the first meeting of the University's Return and Resume 
Development Group (RRDG) and the Executive Team (ET) meeting yesterday, 
I have received an urgent request overnight to identity staff to be 
considered for a ‘first wave’ return to campus, in anticipation of an 
expected gradual relaxation to the lockdown in the coming weeks. The 
ET's expectation is that the first staff to return will be research 
teams and their support staff, particularly those requiring priority lab 
access.

The turnaround is very tight and I need to reply with a list later 
today, for the Faculty to consider ahead of a meeting tomorrow morning. 
Members of the Department's Leadership Team will consider the submitted 
documents and prioritise the requests.

If you would like your research team to be considered for this first 
wave of access (likely in June), please complete and return the attached 
form to me by 3pm today. Due to the very short turnaround time, brief 
details and justification is fine. We will come back to you later for 
more details.

There will be second and third waves of return (to be defined, but 
likely to be July and August). If you would prefer to be considered for 
the second or third wave, then please also let me know. There will a 
deadline next week for that.

I'm sorry for the very short notice, but the request only came in 
overnight. Please complete what you can today and submit additional 
details when time permits. Thanks

Regards,

Paul
