All charges go to the upkeep of the minibuses. Usage and fuel charges, together with any fines and cancellation charges for minibuses are made directly to the club.
Any parking tickets or other fines/penalties incurred while minibuses are being driven will be the sole responsibility of the driver. If a drivers eligibility to drive a Union minibus changes (e.g. if your license gains and endorsements) then the change must be reported to the Union regardless of whether the changes in eligibility occurred whilst you were driving a union minibus or not.
