Terms and conditions

When you register for the Australia - New Zealand Climate Forum 2010, you will have to agree to a set of terms and conditions. A copy of these is provided below for reference.

Payments

Payment must be made in full before attending the Australia - New Zealand Climate Forum 2010. Partial or late payments are not acceptable. Registrations made with a payment by cheque are not valid until the cheque has been received by AMOS.

Inclusions and exclusions

Registration includes morning tea, lunch and afternoon tea on the three days of the conference (or a single day as appropriate). It also includes a printed copy of the conference booklet.
A full registration entitles you to attend the Wednesday evening "icebreaker" and the Thursday evening conference dinner; day registrations do not cover these.
Additional meals, accommodation, travel or other expenses are not included in any registration.

Student concessions

The conference organisers may ask for proof of entitlement for those registering at the discounted "student" rate. If in doubt, please contact the organisers, via email anzcf2010@bom.gov.au before registering.

Limited places

Registration places are limited and will be allocated in the order that applications are received. You will be notified immediately if a place is not available, and any payment made will be refunded in full.

Cancellations and refunds

To cover administration costs and other overheads, a cancellation fee will be charged and may be deducted from refunds as follows:

$100 before 13 August
$200 before 13 September
after 13 September, refunds will only be given in exceptional circumstances

Refunds can only be made by applying to the conference organisers by email anzcf2010@bom.gov.au. Refunds resulting from a place not being available will not attract a fee.

Change of program

The program for the Australia - New Zealand Climate Forum 2010 is not yet confirmed, and the organisers reserve the right to make changes as required.

Insurance not included

Registration does not include insurance of any kind, except where required by law. You should consider taking out your own insurance that includes: loss of registration fees through cancellation of your participation in the conference; business or other loss suffered as a result of cancellation of the conference; loss of travel fares; repatriation arrangements; and loss or damage to person or property. The conference organisers do not take responsibility for any participant failing to arrange their own insurance.

Registration for presenters

An acceptance of an abstract does not constitute an offer to pay travel, accommodation or registration costs associated with the conference. No speaker fee is paid to successful participants. All presenters must register for the conference and forward the appropriate registration fees.

Publication of personal information

Your name, organisation, position, and email address as entered during registration may be published on the web site of the Australia - New Zealand Climate Forum 2010 or included in the printed conference handbook. (during registration you have the option of having your contact details not published).
