Rennie responds to Dundee University news
11 Mar 2025
Responding to the news that Dundee University is to cut 632 jobs, Scottish Liberal Democrat education spokesperson Willie Rennie MSP said:
“This is devastating news for the workforce at the University of Dundee who now face profound uncertainty. It is also a devastating blow to the wider economy of Tayside and Fife.
“There have clearly been some reckless decisions taken by the University of Dundee leadership, but this situation also reflects the underlying Scottish Government funding model.
“That’s why we need an urgent review of funding arrangements to prevent further crisis in Scotland’s universities.”
