University of Canberra (Parking and Traffic) Statute 2015
Disallowable instrument DI2015–262
made under the  
University of Canberra Act 1989, s 40 (Statutes) and s 41 (Statutes about Traffic)
EXPLANATORY STATEMENT

Section 40 of the University of Canberra Act 1989 gives the university Council the power to make Statutes and section 41 gives the university Council the power to make Statutes about Traffic.

The Traffic Statute 1995 has been revoked and replaced by a new Statute, the University of Canberra (Parking and Traffic) Statute 2015. This Statute provides for the management of parking and traffic at the University and updates parking arrangements to reflect the development at the campus, including use of permits and fees. It also addresses the limitations on liability for the University and arrangements for certain types of parking: reserve, disabled and motorcycle parking. The new Statute empowers the university Council to appoint a Traffic Officer and allows for the use of ACT Government Parking Inspectors. 

Section 42 of the University of Canberra Act 1989 requires that a Statute, once made by Council, be submitted by the Chancellor to the Executive for approval.
