Neil,

I attach a copy of my response to the 2017 valuation consultation. I
believe that this College did not respond to the 2014 consultation. Note
please the answer to question one:  

No.

Comment – once again Colleges have received a consultation out of Term
when processes for approval by the College as a body are not in place.
This response represents the opinion of the College Bursar regarding what
the College is expected to conclude when the matter is debated next Term

You will also have noted the following posting in the 'News' section of
the College Website:

12:05, Tuesday 6 March 2018

Recent media reports suggest that St. Catharine’s and other Cambridge
colleges have taken a view as to the acceptability of the revaluation and
forward investment strategy proposed by the Trustee of the Universities
Superannuation Scheme (USS) in September 2017.

St Catharine’s College wishes to clarify that it has neither taken nor
expressed any such view. One Fellow of the College’s Governing Body
offered the Fellow’s own view of the matter in response to a Universities
UK consultation, indicating that the Fellow could not speak for St.
Catharine’s because the College’s Governing Body had yet to discuss the
matter. 

The College holds no institutional view of the acceptability of that
revaluation and the members of the Governing Body have diverse opinions.
 The College joins the University’s Vice-Chancellor in welcoming the
commitment to further talks between UCU and UUK to end the current strike.

If you are not happy with this response to your query you may write to the
Master of the College at [1][email address]
