The council has also been slow to reform the widely criticised research assessment exercises, and its work has been subject to political interference including ministerial grant vetoes and the revelation that it was “keeping files” on academics. Meanwhile ARC
 funding has flatlined, with the real value of its grants declining some 19 per cent over the past seven years.</div>
