Notification of principal place of practice
46 Notification of principal place of practice
(1) If an Australian lawyer reasonably intends that this jurisdiction will be
his or her principal place of practice, he or she must notify the designated
local regulatory authority of that intention--
(a) on application for the
grant or renewal of an Australian practising certificate in this jurisdiction;
and
(b) within 14 days after his or her principal place of practice changes,
if that change coincides with the move to this jurisdiction from another
jurisdiction of the permanent office in or through which the lawyer engages in
legal practice.
(2) The designated local regulatory authority may reject the
notification if it considers that it is reasonably likely that another
jurisdiction will be the Australian lawyer's principal place of practice.
