The purpose of the venue-booking quota is to maximise venue utilisation and
facilitate fair and equitable use of university venues for student activities.
2.
Student organisations can book venues managed by the Facilities Management
Office and the Student Development Services (SDS) via the Venue and Classroom
Booking System.
3.
An annual booking quota of 1000 sessions (50
minutes basis
starting on the hour)
will be allocated to each student organisation during their term
of office.
4.
Bookings cancelled via the Venue and Classroom Booking System will not be
counted against the allocated quota.
5.
Student organisations will receive notification when bookings reach 80% of their
allocated quota.
6.
Student societies will receive notification when attempting to book more than
their allocated quota.

Once the bookings have reached the quota, requests for additional quota will be
considered if there are good reasons and the student organisation has behaved
fairly in using the system.
