Academic integrity
Evidence must be represented accurately; authorship, contribution and sources must be attributed; fabrication, falsification and plagiarism are incompatible with Academy work.

POLICY REGISTER
These principles apply to Academy elections, honours, publications, meetings, governance and public communications.
Conflicts and recusals
Relevant interests are declared before access to papers or deliberation. The chair records the management of an interest, including recusal where impartial judgement may reasonably be questioned.
Operative principleEquality of consideration
Academic work is assessed against published criteria and in its disciplinary context. Protected characteristics, institutional prestige and personal association are not substitutes for evidence.
Operative principleData and confidentiality
Nomination, assessment, governance and correspondence records are limited to persons with a defined role, retained according to purpose and protected against unauthorised disclosure.
Operative principlePublication and correction
Authorship, review and approval are identified. Substantiated errors are corrected promptly; material changes and withdrawals remain visible in the publication record.
Operative principleComplaints and review
Corrections, procedural complaints and conduct concerns are considered by a person without a material conflict. Outcomes give reasons and identify any available review.
