This award recognises and commemorates the fine example Sir Timothy&#8217;s own life has set for young people entering the profession.<\/h2>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>From 2022 the New Zealand Law Society will administer the Prize on behalf of the New Zealand Law Foundation while it is in recess. The Law Foundation will continue to provide the prize money.

Applicants are eligible for consideration for the prize if they apply within a three year period from the date of their admission to the bar.

Any application for special consideration to apply outside the 3 year eligibility criteria is considered on a broad discretionary basis by the New Zealand Law Society. Whilst all circumstances provided in support of special consideration are taken into account, there are no specific criteria that require consideration or satisfy eligibility outside three years. The New Zealand Law Society&#8217;s decision on any such special application is final.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Value $5,000 annually.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\" \/>\r\n\r\n\r\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Applications close 5pm 1st September each year.<\/h4>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Please read the terms of reference then email the following application information to <a href=\"mailto:clearyprize@lawsociety.org.nz\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" data-type=\"URL\">clearyprize@lawsociety.org.nz <\/a> prior to the closing date.
