Pat again:

Sorry I didn't put this in my previous post, but I just read your 
comment about Dumbledore being exempt from the rule, and it reminded 
me that when Hagrid is telling them about thestrals, he says that 
they don't get much work, other than pulling the carriages--unless 
Dumbledore decides to use them instead of apparating to London.  Of 
course, he doesn't say whether DD has to leave the grounds to 
apparate, but still, it was one of those things that stuck out like 
a sore thumb when I read it--at least the 2nd time anyway.
