Organisation and Staff
OPERATIONS STAFF
Dr S W Unger, who had been Acting Head of ING, was substantively promoted into the post in April 1995. Subsequently, following interviews in September 1995, Dr R G M Rutten was promoted to the role of Head of Astronomy. The post of Head of Engineering was left vacant for the whole of the period covered by this report, following the unsuccessful exercise to fill it in 1994.
For 1996, the telescope managers were: for the WHT, Dr C R Benn; for the INT, Dr N A Walton; and for the JKT, Mr P J Rudd.
The total UK approved annual staff effort for La Palma operations for financial year 1995/96 was 42. This comprised 32 staff on-island and 10 staff at the RGO in Cambridge. The total approved staff effort for the Netherlands was 8 on-island and 1 in Cambridge.
During the period covered by this report, astronomical support provided by the RGO on behalf of the ING was the responsibility of the La Palma Support Group of the RGO's Astronomy Division. The Support Group, headed during this period by Dr D Carter, supplemented the work of the ING Astronomy Group.
The list of staff in post on La Palma during 1995 and 1996 is set out below.
