Legal Practitioners Act 1981

This Schedule does not authorise an interstate-registered foreign lawyer to practise foreign law in this jurisdiction to a greater extent than a locally registered foreign lawyer could be authorised under a local registration certificate.

Also, an interstate-registered foreign lawyer's right to practise foreign law in this jurisdiction—

is subject to—

any conditions imposed by the Society under clause 47; and

any conditions imposed by or under the legal profession rules as referred to in that clause; and

is, to the greatest practicable extent and with all necessary changes—

the same as the interstate-registered foreign lawyer's right to practise foreign law in the lawyer's home jurisdiction; and

subject to any condition on the interstate-registered foreign lawyer's right to practise foreign law in that jurisdiction.

If there is an inconsistency between conditions mentioned in subclause (2)(a) and conditions mentioned in subclause (2)(b), the conditions that are, in the opinion of the Society, more onerous prevail to the extent of the inconsistency.

An interstate-registered foreign lawyer must not practise foreign law in this jurisdiction in a manner not authorised by this Act or in contravention of any condition referred to in this clause.
