Legislative Assembly for the ACT: 2000 Week 3 Hansard (9 March) . . Page.. 784 ..

EVENTS

ACTRU will locate all regular season "home" competition games at Bruce Stadium unless otherwise directed by the Governing Body, as well as using their best endeavours to secure other games controlled by the Governing Body such as finals events, pre-season trials, Tests, etc. Flexibility will be granted to allow ACTRU to conduct fixtures at alternative venues, which at the beginning of the season are classified as "home" competition games. The terms of the change in venue will be negotiated on a game by game basis, however ACTRU will commit to play the majority of their scheduled "home" games at Bruce Stadium for the term of their Hiring Agreement.

MANAGEMENT OF THE STADIUM

The Territory intends to establish a new structure for the management of the redeveloped Stadium. This may involve:

appointment or establishment of a management body: and/or

appointment of one or more contract service providers in relation to various aspects of the running of the Stadium.

ACTRU will be invited to participate in the selection process for the service providers.

The Territory intends to establish a Monthly Operations Forum whereby representatives of ACTRU will contribute to the development of operating policies and practices for the successful, on-going efficient and effective management of the Stadium.

The method by which the ACTRU and other Major Hirers will be involved in both the selection process for service providers and the proposed Monthly Operations Forum is to be determined.

Upon establishment or appointment of a new management body, the Territory will be entitled to assign or novate to that body such rights and obligations under the Heads of Agreement or any subsequent Hiring Agreement for the use of the Stadium as the Territory sees fit.

RENTAL STRUCTURE

The base rental will be structured on the basis of 15% of the total gate. This will include all categories of ticketing (including season tickets and other pre-paid tickets), but not complimentaries.

In the case of smaller matches, the base rent of 15% will be set off against a minimum guaranteed opening fee of say $5,000-$10,000 to ensure that the Territory does not incur costs beyond its minimum revenue.
