I suspect that, up until 2 and a half years ago, while I was employed 
within the School of Computing, then I fullfilled the role. Since then, I 
have, for all except 2 months been employed for one day a week, by a 
different dept in the uni. Up until a big Uni H&S audit last year (after a 
few serious H&S breaches in the uni, though not in computing), that could 
have been enough. Since the Uni has tightened up, that was not necessarily 
enough, and Dave had been going to discuss things with the uni.

As things turn out, I doubt I will be there on Monday.
