Additional conditions on practice of interstate-registered foreign lawyers
216 Additional conditions on practice of interstate-registered foreign lawyers
The Law Society may, by written notice to an interstate-registered foreign lawyer practising foreign law in this jurisdiction, impose any condition on the interstate-registered foreign lawyer's practice that it may impose under this Act in relation to a locally-registered foreign lawyer.
Also, an interstate-registered foreign lawyer's right to practise foreign law in this jurisdiction is subject to any condition imposed by or under an applicable legal profession rule.
Conditions imposed under or referred to in this section must not be more onerous than conditions applying to locally-registered foreign lawyers in the same or similar circumstances.
A notice under this section must include an information notice for the decision to impose a condition.
