The Police Officer Expenses lists specific expenses claimable by police recruits. It provides a very specific example that a police recruit, Brian, employed by the Queensland Police Service, and living in a suburb of Brisbane, attends the Police Academy located in Brisbane. This recruit drives between his home and the Academy each day.
It states explicitly that "Brian can claim a deduction for the cost of travelling between his home and the Police Academy."
Can this example be relied upon? As The Academy is effectively Brian's usual place of employment, is it the fact he is undertaking training there the reason for being able to
claim the cost of travel?
