Space Management charges for staff bookings
The charges are part of the annual budget, calculated at the end of the year. The charges are a pro-rata allocation based on usage through the entire year and so vary slightly depending on total usage (seat hours) of all venues during the year and the actual expenditure during the year to support all shared teaching spaces. The exact figure can only be calculated after the year has ended.
The Faculty or Department pays for space charges as part of its University Services Charges.
