Canberra Institute of Technology, Northside - Parking
The petition read as follows:
To the Speaker and Members of the Legislative Assembly for the Australian Capital Territory.
We the undersigned students of the Canberra Institute of Technology Student Association - Northside object to:
1) The lack of sufficient parking facilities for students on campus.
2) The introduction of a full fee paying voucher system for students in carpark 17 along Constitution Avenue. We believe that students face particular difficulties when attempting to use the public transport system. For example, class timetables not coinciding with bus timetables, the unwieldy load of textbooks and course requisites for many classes and students are also required to travel to and from other campuses.
We request that a discount voucher system be implemented.
Petitions received.
