Legislative Compliance
The Director of Legal Services monitors legislative developments and provides coordination and communication to ensure that UCD is aware of and compliant with legislation that applies to any of its activities. Specifically, the University Director of Legal Services provides the following services:
- Interpretation of legislation that is relevant to UCD.
- A central point of contact within the University for communicating and coordinating arrangements for legislative compliance.
However, UCD Legal is often not the primary source of information regarding the implementation of particular legislation, but will direct you to the relevant office. e.g. the University Safety, Insurance, Operational Risk and Compliance Office (SIRC) is responsible for the hazardous substances legislation.
