*NZDA Wellington Branch Meeting – Terms & Conditions
1. Eligibility for Attendance
Branch meetings are intended for current full, associate or life members of NZDA Wellington Branch only, unless prior arrangements have been approved by the Branch Executive.
2. Meal Bookings
The venue requires final meal numbers and dietary requirements by the Friday prior to each meeting and the Branch is invoiced based on those confirmed numbers. Therefore, the following conditions apply:
RSVP Deadline — RSVPs for meals must be received no later than 5:00pm on the Friday prior to the Branch meeting. Anyone RSVP’ing after the deadline may be placed on a waiting list in case meals become available.
Payment Deadline — Payment for meals must also be received by midday on the Friday prior to the meeting.
Dietary Requirements — All dietary requirements must be submitted by the RSVP deadline so they can be included in the final numbers provided to the venue.
3. Cancellations and Non-Attendance
If a member has RSVP’d for a meal but fails to provide at least 48 hours’ notice of cancellation, the member will be responsible for the member cost of the meal ($55)*. This may be waived if another member is accepted from the waiting list.
*Note: The Branch significantly subsidises meal costs. Members pay $55, while the actual cost to the Branch is $65.
4. Payment Responsibility
Members are responsible for ensuring:
Timely payment for any meals they have booked
Accuracy of RSVP information including dietary requirements
Compliance with deadlines to avoid unnecessary charges to the Branch
5. Amendments to Terms
The NZDA Wellington Branch reserves the right to amend these Terms & Conditions as required to meet venue obligations, financial responsibilities, or operational needs.
