Overview (Program Summary)

A program hosted by:

ACC Australia

Please join Kathryn Speed and Brett Cassidy from Page Seager Lawyers for a Corporate and Commercial update CPD. 

Our presenters will discuss two important issues for our Tasmanian audience.

The first topic is the 
drafting and enforcement of post-COVID force majeure provisions. Legal counsel are at the forefront of contract interpretation and disputes, and an understanding of the operation of these clauses is critical now more than ever.

The second topic is an outline of what legal counsel need to know regarding the recent updates to the Public Interest Disclosure Regime in Tasmania.  This will include a summary of relevant obligations and who they apply to, practical tips to ensure compliance and the consequences of non-compliance.

Both ACC Australia and TAS Government COVID Restrictions and Recommendations will be followed for this event. Should you have any questions regarding these measures please contact Teagan Jones at ausevents@accglobal.com.

There are limited places available for this event - so book now!
