Conference Cancellation or Postponement
Royal Australian and New Zealand College of Psychiatrists (RANZCP) may cancel or postpone the Conference due to circumstances beyond its reasonable control, including but not limited to Acts of God, terrorism, war, strikes or industrial action, fire, explosion, inevitable accident, breakdown of property, changes in law, or pandemics or global health crises. Due to the nature of the event, it may be reasonable to postpone the event to a later year and/or to change the location for the Conference.
In the event the Conference is not able to proceed as planned, and is moved to a virtual format, your registration will be transferred to a virtual registration. If you choose not to attend the virtual Conference, ASE and NZSE will not be required to refund any part of the Conference registration fee.
In the event of postponement of the Conference, if, when requested, you advise that you are willing to attend the rescheduled Conference, Royal Australian and New Zealand College of Psychiatrists (RANZCP) will transfer the registration and guarantee the same conditions and equivalent registration entitlements (subject to reasonable modification and availability) at the rescheduled event. If, at a later date, you then choose not to attend the rescheduled Conference, the Royal Australian and New Zealand College of Psychiatrists (RANZCP) will not be required to refund any part of the Conference registration fee.
In the event of a full cancellation of the Conference by the Royal Australian and New Zealand College of Psychiatrists (RANZCP) , you will be entitled to a full refund of the amount of the Conference registration fee received.
The maximum liability of the Royal Australian and New Zealand College of Psychiatrists (RANZCP) under these Terms and Conditions is limited to a refund of the Conference registration fee with no additional liability for travel costs, hotel costs, or any other associated costs.
Delegate cancellation – Medical
The health and safety of Conference attendees is our highest priority. ASE and NZSE are mindful of the health risks posed by COVID-19, and the importance of following official medical advice with respect to social distancing, practicing good hygiene and staying at home when unwell. Royal Australian and New Zealand College of Psychiatrists (RANZCP) request that any delegate who is feeling unwell or has cold or flu like symptoms, or who may have been in contact with someone with COVID-19, not attend the Conference.
If, on medical grounds, you are unable to attend the Conference, you must cancel your in-person attendance in writing by email to fcap@wsm.com.au. A virtual registration will then be offered, with any difference in price refunded. A full refund may be provided at the discretion of the Royal Australian and New Zealand College of Psychiatrists (RANZCP) , however you may be asked to provide additional details.
Insurance
Participants are strongly advised to secure appropriate travel and health insurance. Delegate registration fees do not provide any such insurance coverage. Royal Australian and New Zealand College of Psychiatrists (RANZCP) and the Conference Office accept no responsibility for any loss in this regard.
