13 When a private plated vehicle could reasonably be used
Transport costs are not prescribed for travel by unscheduled commercial transport within the member’s electorate if the member could reasonably use the member’s private plated vehicle in the circumstances, assuming the member had a private plated vehicle.
Note: A member’s remuneration under section 14 of the Act may include one or more private plated vehicles or an allowance instead of a private plated vehicle.
Note: A member who chooses an allowance instead of a private plated vehicle could reasonably be expected to use the allowance instead of claiming taxi costs in circumstances where a private plated vehicle could otherwise reasonably be used.
