Membership

Nominations for Executive Committee
Nominations are called for election to the Executive Committee prior to the AGM. Nominations must be by two members of the Society and should be sent in writing to the Secretary.

Guests
Members are reminded that you are welcome to bring guests to any of the dinner meetings, especially if they are interested in becoming a member of the Society. A dinner fee of $110 per guest is payable. Please advise the Secretary prior to the meeting if you intend to invite a guest.  The dinner fee will be deducted from the membership fee if the guest joins the Society in the current year.

Members
The membership fee is currently $490.00 per annum.

The Committee continues to encourage the introduction of new members to the Society; the reduced fee for the first year of membership is set at $390.00 per annum.

In recognition of the contribution of those who have fully retired from their professional roles, there is also a reduced fee for retired members who are over the age of 70 years at $380.00 per annum.

The rules of the Society state that the object of the Society shall be the promotion of medico legal knowledge in all its aspects. Membership of the Society is open to “qualified members of the legal and medical professions, and of such other persons as may be interested in medico legal work”. We encourage all members to think about potential new members. Candidates for membership should be proposed and seconded in writing by members of the Society.
Nominations can be sent to the secretary.

Speakers Programme
The engagement of speakers always requires a good deal of thought and preparation on the part of the Committee. The Committee is mindful of the need to arrange speakers who are not only interesting and entertaining, but who are also able to contribute to intellectual discourse on issues which are important to the Society’s members. The Committee would be pleased to receive any suggestions from members for future speakers.
