Appendix 2 Judicial activities In addition to hearing and determining cases, the Family Court’s judges and judicial registrars actively contribute to the development of the law both in Australia and internationally. This is achieved through attending conferences and seminars, presenting papers, addressing professional associations and community-based organisations, meeting international delegations and liaising with judicial colleagues around the world. Many judges and judicial registrars also serve as members of organising committees for conferences as well as working in the community with legal and cultural organisations. A summary of the Chief Justice’s engagements for 2005-06 is below.
