Department Service Vehicle

Vehicles may be allocated to a Faculty, Directorate, School, Department, College or Research Centre for official use only and these areas will meet all costs of the vehicle. It will be necessary to nominate a staff member to be responsible for the vehicle.

Department Service Vehicles are not to be used for Personal use. Personal use includes travel to and from home. Any inappropriate use of the University Vehicle will be the responsibility of the nominated staff member including all resulting costs.

Fleet & Logistic Services in conjunction with the Chief Financial Officer and Chief Operations Officer will review vehicle purchases and sales as required.

• All motor vehicles owned, financed and/or leased by the University, regardless of where the funds originated, are the property of the University. Vehicle purchase options are made at the discretion of the Chief Financial Officer.
• New residents or visitors to New South Wales (NSW) from interstate or internationally are required to comply with the Services NSW licence requirements. Information can be found on the Services NSW website.
• Any person, whose driving licence has expired, been suspended, cancelled or altered in any way, must inform Fleet & Logistic Services Supervisor in writing, including the reason for the change, within 48 hours. The person must cease driving University Vehicles immediately and must not use any other vehicle for University purposes.
• All vehicle drivers may park a UNE car at their home overnight where returning the vehicle to the UNE would involve a return journey in excess of 50 km's, after or before working hours, provided this is arranged with the Vehicle Pool.
