Delegate Code of Conduct Agreement – Please read
We hope that the conference is a positive experience for all attendees and ask that delegates abide by the following code of conduct:
- BSR cannot guarantee capacity in any particular session. Although we will do our best to avoid disappointment, there may be occasions when a room is full. We ask that you arrive as early as possible to ensure access. Legally we are not allowed to let you into a room if it is full.
- Delegates are responsible for all their property. Neither BSR nor the venue accepts liability for loss of or damage to personal items.
- Bags and packages must be in your possession at all times. The safety and security of delegates is paramount and unattended items may cause security alerts.
- If any delegate is deemed to be acting inappropriately BSR will require them to leave the venue. No refund will be due in this instance
- Unfortunately it is not permissible for children under the age of 16 to have access to the meeting
