“Merchants in the Temple? The Implications of the GATS for Canada’s Health Care System” |
(paper presented to National Health Law Conference, Toronto, |
January 2004) |
Eg Tracey Epps “Merchants in the Temple? The Implications of the GATS for Canada’s Health Care System” (paper presented to National Health Law Conference, Toronto, January 2004).
Prefix the description of the conference by an indication that the reference is to a speech such as “speech to” or “paper presented to”, unless it is clear from the title of the conference that the reference is to an unpublished paper delivered to a conference.
Eg Warren Brookbanks “Developments in Neuroscience and the Law: Is Mens Rea Behind Us?” (paper presented to Justice Horizons Seminar, Wellington, 5 June 2007).
New Zealand Law Society conference papers, which are published by the Society following conferences, should be cited in accordance with this rule. Such papers are unpublished in the sense that they are not published as a formal text or book of edited essays. The starting page of the paper in question should be given after the date and before any pinpoint reference.
Eg Justin Smith “Good Faith” (paper presented to New Zealand Law Society The Law of Obligations – “Contract in Context” Intensive Conference, July 2007) 27 at 28.
Eg Mike Taggart “Proportionality, Deference, Wednesbury” (paper presented to the New Zealand Law Society Judicial Review Intensive Conference, September 2007) 23 at 46.
The New Zealand Law Society also publishes a range of papers that were not presented at conferences. These should be described in round brackets as “New Zealand Law Society seminar” or “New Zealand Law Society webinar”, as the case may be.
Eg Sean Brennan and Geoff McLay “Non-Delegable Duties and Vicarious Liability” in Torts Update (New Zealand Law Society seminar, 2016) 19 at 23.
Eg Sarah Devoy and Natalie Miller “Notices of Intention to Cancel” in Issues in Cancellation of Commercial Contracts and Leases (New Zealand Law Society webinar, 2016) 35.
