LIABILITY

The Congress Secretariat has taken all reasonable care in making the arrangements for the Congress. In the event of unforeseen disruptions, neither SORSA or CONSULTUS can be held responsible for any losses incurred by delegates, speakers, invited guests and vendors. The programme is correct at the time of printing, but the scientific committee reserves the right to alter the programme if and when deemed necessary. The Congress Secretariat acts as an a agent only in securing hotel, transport and travel services, and shall in no event be liable for acts or omissions in the event of injury, damage, loss, accident, delay or irregularity of any kind whatsoever during arrangements organised through contractors or by the employees of such contractors. Hotel and transportation services are subject to the Terms and Conditions under which they are offered to the general public. Delegates should make their own arrangements with respect to personal insurance. The Congress Secretariat reserves the right to make changes as and when deemed necessary, without prior notice to the parties concerned. All disputes are subject to resolution under South African Law.

All accommodation, travel, programme and other arrangements are subject to alteration and cancellation at any time without prior notice, due to factors that are outside of the organizers reasonable control. This will be at the sole and absolute discretion of the organizers. Should such events, such as Force Majeure (eg war, earthquake, fire, flood, vandalism, destruction, act of God or of government, legislative enactment or amendment, regulatory interference, strikes, lockouts or any other industrial disputes as well as all other causes beyond the reasonable control of a party) render the organizers unable to deliver such service, the organizers shall not be held responsible. The organizers cannot be held responsible for any damages, and or costs, whatsoever arising from any such alteration or cancellation.
