2.           The Code of Conduct is designed to enable all Members to feel valued, supported, safe and happy. The Code of Conduct sets out general expectations and standards of behaviour. The Code of Conduct is also intended to provide a framework for non-NSWIRC guests, including speakers and persons who attend events from time to time, as to what is expected of them when they attend an IRSNSW event.

·         Not bully, harass or display inappropriate behaviours towards others;

·         Not be impaired by alcohol, drugs or any such substance which may put you or others at risk, or of feeling uncomfortable;

·         Disclose, and take reasonable steps to avoid, any conflict of interest (actual, perceived or potential) arising in connection with your membership;

6.           The IRSNSW Committee will have full discretion to review a complaint and make a finding in respect of any breach.

7.           Where a finding of breach is serious enough to warrant consideration of expulsion of a Member, the Committee will take action pursuant to section 11 of the IRSNSW Constitution (2021) or as amended from time to time, including possible expulsion of a member pursuant to section 11(4) of the Constitution.
