Disclosures barristers are required to make

Fri Apr 05 2019

Applications for the renewal of practising certificates for the practice year 2019-20 will be made available to barristers shortly through a new online web-based system. Barristers can expect to receive further information about their online renewal in the coming weeks. The online renewal form (which is identical to the hard copy renewal form completed in previous years) contains questions relating to disclosures that barristers are required to make to the Bar Council.

For the assistance of members, an outline of the disclosures that barristers are required to make is available here. The outline has been prepared by Ed Muston SC as part of presentation of his CPD seminar on disclosures delivered at the Bar Association on 20 March 2018. It is recommended that barristers watch the online CPD for full details. The online presentation may be accessed by logging in to your CPD account.

Should you have any questions about what you are required to disclose, please contact the Professional Conduct Department on (02) 9232 4055 or by email at pcd@nswbar.asn.au.
