Question

In December 2025, Macquarie University sacked at least 3 staff with active ARC funding and demoted another to teaching-only while being a lead-CI on a current Discovery Project. The university has jeopardised the completion of these projects. Does this infringe upon funding agreements between the ARC and the host university?
