Though 'sexual misconduct' is the 'sexy' element that will inevitably attract media attention serious misconduct extends to any behaviour that may amount to criminal offending (see Pinsent Masons advice document).What's important is the balance between recognising the discipline context of the investigation with a nod of acknowledgement that it could 'go criminal' at any stage for a host of reasons.That's why at Intersol we emphasise context and proportionality whilst recognising the spirit of first class investigation and Extraordinary Case Management (ECM®), ensuring that if your investigation is challenged at any time it will have the best chance of withstanding scrutiny, scrutiny that has never been so intense when lives, futures, and reputations are at stake, and Non Disclosure Agreements (NDAs) under so much examination.The author is delighted to be supporting UUK and individual universities to address the issues and is putting the finishing touches to the fully subscribed workshop they are delivering in partnership with UUK in London tomorrow, 30th October 2018.
