It provides long-term strategic advice on fundraising to the Council and monitors and reports all matters relating to fundraising activities and initiatives. Internal Control and Measures The Council is responsible for ensuring that the University’s system of internal control is sound and that principal risks are properly managed to achieve the University’s vision and mission. It oversees the long-term sustainability and the reputation of the University, among others. Risk management is a critical element of the University administration. The Senior Management Team has responsibility for devising adequate and effective internal control to safeguard the University’s assets, and to ensure that liabilities incurred are recorded and managed effectively and that unnecessary liabilities are minimised, if not avoided, to maintain a healthy and sustainable position. The Senior Management Team is also responsible for monitoring risks, if any, associated with the University’s operation and the proper management of the risks identified from time to time. On a regular basis, the Senior Management Team will review and report the principal risks faced by the University, together with the risk mitigation strategies, to the Council. Under the delegated authority of the Council, the authority to make major decisions on staffing and financial matters rests with the Staffing Committee and Finance Committee respectively. Appointments of staff, with the exception of appointments of the President and Vice Presidents, are approved by the Staffing Committee and the President (up to a certain rank). Procurement authorisation for purchase of goods and services has also been delegated to the Finance Committee and appropriate internal committees and officers. The Senior Management Team conducts periodic reviews of the Financial and Internal Control Policy and the Purchasing Policy and Procedures to ensure that they are effective. Appropriate revisions to the policies and procedures and enhancements of controls and safeguards will be examined and approved by the Finance Committee. 人事委員會就人事聘任、委任、薪酬福利、員工關係及 發展政策等聘用條款事宜，向校董會作出建議，並通過 教職員上訴分委會檢視上訴個案，就教職員在人事任 命、申訴、紀律及歧視或騷擾投訴等事項就程序上所作 的上訴，作出考慮及決議。 委員會的職權範圍及成員名單載列於大學網站的「校政」 頁(www.eduhk.hk)。 香港教育大學基金乃一高層次平台，負責籌募、獲取及 接受捐獻，以支持本校的發展，並推動及促進科學、社 會科學、人文科學、教育和文化等活動。該基金亦會就 籌募資金的長遠策略，向校董會提供意見及建議，並監 管及匯報與籌募資金相關的事宜。 內部監管及措施 校董會負責確保本校內部監管系統運作健全，並妥善管 理主要風險，以助本校實現願景，達成使命。校董會 職責範圍涵蓋甚廣，當中包括監督本校的長遠可持續發 展，以及維護本校聲譽等。 風險管理是大學行政的關鍵要素。管理團隊負責設置足 夠而有效的內部監管機制，以保障本校資產，並確保負 債得以恰當記錄及有效管理，同時致力減少不必要負 債，以維持財務穩健和可持續發展。團隊亦須監控與大 學運營相關的風險（如有），妥善管理不時發現的風險， 兼且定時審視本校所面對的主要風險及減低風險的策 略，並向校董會報告。 人事委員會及財務委員會獲校董會授權，分別就重要的 人事及財務事項作出決策。除校長及副校長任命外，人 事任命須獲人事委員會及校長（至特定職級）通過。批准 採購商品及服務的權責則授予財務委員會與合適的內部 委員會及相關部門人員。管理團隊會定期審視財務及內 部監管政策，以及採購政策與程序，以確保其有效執行 及運作。合適的政策及程序修訂，以及監管和保障措施 的改進，將由財務委員會審視並通過。
