Proposed Allocation Principles

 The following principles are proposed to be applied when separating each type of item. The list is not
 exhaustive and may need further refinement as the process evolves.

 OTHER ITEMS (Including Portable and Attractive Items)

aA    Ae                              Allocation Principles

 Information communication            Principle 1 - Physical location when the ICT item is not user specific and can be
 technology (ICT) items and           identified as specifically servicing a particular region (i.e. printer, hot-desk
 equipment (including leased)         desktop phone & computer)

                                      Principle 2— Where the ICT item is user specific (i.e. mobile phone,
                                      tablet/PC/laptop computer, PDA device, desk phone) the item ‘follows’ the
                                      user (i.e. transfers with the staff member should they be transferred to
                                      Noosa).

                                      Working group required to identify and provide an agreed schedule of ICT
                                      items and equipment as at 31 December 2013

 Leased fleet and plant               A working group is required to identify and provide a reconciliation of current
                                      plant and equipment, and the requirements of both the continuing and news
                                      councils. The working group will aim to allocate PP&E to ensure that SCC
                                      receives all PP&E required to maintain their geographical area, taking into
                                      account the requirements by NSC. For PP&E items which cannot meet these
                                      requirements a listing will be brought before the transfer committee for
                                      resolution.

                                      Working group required to identify and provide an agreed schedule of
                                      allocated leased plant and equipment as at 31 December 2013

                                      Working group required to identify and provide an agreed schedule of
                                      allocated furniture and equipment as at 31 December 2013

                                      Library resources not located within a library as at the 31st December 2013
                                      are to be allocated based on the proportion of library facilities

                                      Working group required to identify and provide an agreed schedule of
                                      allocated library books and resources as at 31 December 2013

                                      Principle 2 - Where the item is assigned to a plant or vehicle, the item
                                      ‘follows’ the plant / vehicle

                                      Principle 3- Where physical location, direct assignment and a specific
                                      proportional usage method is not available for asset allocation, an equitable
