That's according to The Irish Independent
Maynooth University has reportedly reversed its decision to end staff elections for governing authority roles.
According to Wayne O'Connor writing in The Irish Independent, the decision was confirmed to staff in an email last night, following a governing authority meeting yesterday.
It's reported that a "major row" broke out between staff and officials over the University’s plans to end the practice of staff electing their representatives on the board, with academics last week said to be considering industrial action if the dispute continued.
The University had planned to introduce a new selection process to fill the staff representative roles on a new incoming governing authority later this year.
Kfm now understands that this decision has been reversed.
It means staff will be able to vote and elect representatives for the new incoming board.
The governing authority is a board responsible for the management and strategic direction of the University.
