� NCA ensures the Kiosks are resilient and substantially vandal resistant, and kept clean and in working order.
� NCA provides a 24 hour automatic telephone recording for Kiosk users and the Territory to notify faults in the operation of the Kiosk system to NCA.
� NCA installs an automatic fault paging system which tests for Kiosk problems at least once each hour and notifies NCA of the fault.
� NCA logs the time, place and nature of faults reported to it by Kiosk users, the Territory or the automatic paging system and provides that log to the Territory on a monthly basis.
� NCA responds to faults with screen errors or in the EFTPOS system within two working hours of being notified of the fault.
� NCA responds to faults with the printers on a Kiosk within four working hours of being notified of the fault.
� NCA assists and co-operates with the Territory to liaise and consult with groups representing the disabled on issues concerning access to Kiosks by the disabled, and in further developing accessibility to Kiosks and the Kiosk System for the disabled.
(6) Intellectual Property in Agreement Material produced jointly by the Territory and NCA under this Agreement vests in the Territory and NCA jointly as Intellectual Property owners. The Territory grants NCA a royalty-free licence for the term of this Agreement to use, reproduce, adapt or exploit, jointly owned Agreement Material.
(7) The intention of sharing the ownership of the Intellectual Property with the service provider was to encourage the technology to be marketed beyond the ACT Public Service. In effect, the responsibility for commercialising the Intellectual Property was transferred to the private sector, on the basis that it is not Government's core business. The ACT is used as a reference site by NCA. The benefit to the ACT is believed to be a lower price for the service than would otherwise have been possible.
