If a registered attendee cancels or does not attend the LCA event other than for a reason that relates to the Non-excludable Consumer Obligations, for example where the registered attendee cancels or does not attend due to a change in the registered attendee's own circumstances, the following policy applies;
Cancellations must be notified in writing to chelsea.desilva@lawcouncil.au
Cancellations before Wednesday, 19 February 2026 (30 days) are fully refundable.
Cancellations on or after Wednesday, 19 February 2026 will not be entitled to any refunds.
Delegate substitutions may be made at any time subject to the communication to, and approval by, the LCA (which cannot be unreasonably withheld). If a replacement delegate is not a section member, the non-member
fee will apply, and the difference must be paid within 24 hours or prior to the event, whichever is sooner.
Invoices have a payment term of 14 days from the date of issue. Full payment of invoices must be settled prior to the event.
Registrations received within 14 days of the commencement of the event need to be settled within 24 hours or prior to the event, whichever is sooner.
Failure to make payment as required may result in cancellation of registration.
It is the responsibility of the individual member to determine whether CPD points can be earned for an attendance of an
event hosted by the sections of the LCA, as the mandatory CPD requirements vary between each State and Territory. Please refer to your relevant State and Territory Law Society in advance of the event for further information.
Registration fees do not include insurance. It is strongly recommended that at the time you register for the event and book your travel you take out an insurance policy of your choice. The policy should include:
- Loss of fees/deposit through cancellation of your participation in the event or through the cancellation of the event,
- Loss of international/domestic air fares through cancellation for any reason,
- Loss of tour monies through cancellation for any reason including airline or related services strikes within Australia,
- Failure to utilise tours or pre-booked arrangements due to airline delay,
- Force Majeure or any other reason,

The Host and Organiser of the Immigration Law Conference 2026 (the “Event”) reserve the right to remove from the venue/event at any time any attendee deemed to be causing, or potentially causing, a disturbance or exhibiting disruptive or inappropriate behaviour. Such removal does not constitute a right to refund of any fees paid.
