Staff with disabilities may apply for a permit which allows them to use space in University car parks reserved for disabled drivers. Further details are available from the Facilities Manager, Estates and Buildings Department. When driving on University property, you must comply with designated speed limits and observe all traffic instructions as well as normal traffic regulations. Individual members of staff are personally responsible for any fine or other penalty arising from a Road Traffic Offence where the law indicates that responsibility rests with the driver of the vehicle, when using a vehicle on University business, and whether the vehicle belongs to the University or not. In cases where the law indicates that the vehicle's keeper is responsible, the University is liable for any penalty and this is attributable to the Budget Officer responsible for the vehicle.
Most insurance companies provide such cover free of charge.
The costs of postage are recharged to Budget Centres. The University reserves the right to open and inspect any unauthorised mail, and return it to the sender and, if necessary, draw the matter to the attention of the head of department. Account codes can be set up for individual activities, e.g. in connection with a learned or professional society. The University postal system must not be used for personal correspondence. Post sent out on a Friday is always sent second class.
