YSTV Policy: Difference between revisions

#YSTV keys and access to the Station are the responsibility of the Station Manager.  

#The key list is a list of YSTV members who are allowed to withdraw a key to the Station (the “Porters’ Key”), which is held by James Porters. The list may be accessed at any time at ystv.co.uk/keys. Anyone not on the key list will not be allowed to borrow this key. On borrowing the key, the member must sign the porters’ key form and their university card must be left with the porters as a deposit. The member is then responsible for looking after the key, securing and locking the Station when they leave, and returning the key. Key holders should also be on this list.  

#All officers of YSTV should be on the key list. The Station Director or Station Manager may add any member to the key list. The Station Director is responsible for maintaining the list and members are advised to contact the Station Director or Station Manager if they would like to be added to the list.  

#The Station Director may remove any member from the key list for reasons including, but not limited to, breaking rules laid down in YSTV’s Constitution or Policy. If a key holder is removed, their key must also be returned to the Station. This may be appealed against at a Station Meeting.  

#Ordinary members who wish to temporarily hold a key to fulfil a role should consult the relevant Team Leader for that role (e.g. for an editing project, consult the Production Director). The team leader will, at their discretion, bring the request to a Station Meeting to be voted upon. Any terms of the key being held (i.e. to be returned after the project is completed) must be mentioned at the Station Meeting and minuted.

#The Station Director or Station Manager may propose at a Station Meeting to cut new keys for the Media Group in the event that too few are available. Upon passing a vote, it is the Station Manager’s responsibility to see it done and distribute/store the new keys.  

#Any member found to have duplicated a YSTV key will be asked to surrender it to the Media Group. If a Station key is not surrendered after a formal request, disciplinary action may be taken in conjunction with YUSU, the University, or the Police.
