The University of Zululand has provided the following responses to the questions posed.
The Criteria on the allocation of staff housing is set out in section 5 of the policy. The university has set out 4 main purposes for housing units in section 5.1
Category 5.1.1 deals with the allocation of staff housing for executives. The housing for other categories of employees (5.1.2, 5.1.3 and 5.1.4) is on approximate proportion of 50:25:25. This ratio can be modified from time to time based on the need.
For category 5.1.2 (permanent employees), preference is given to those on higher Peromnes (4-6). Employees under this category are given a 3-year lease which may be renewable after the end of the 3-year period.
For staff category 5.1.3 (temporary housing of newly appointed staff), units may be offered for a period of up to 6 months from their commencement date.
For category 5.1.4 (housing of staff on short term contracts), housing is offered for the duration of the contract up to a maximum of 24 months.
2. Yes, the catergories as outlined above are used when allocating staff accommodation.
3. (a) The University has staff accommodation both on and off-campus. The university submitted an incomplete list as shown in Table 1 below. This information will be submitted as soon as the university has provided updated information through the Department.
