Hi all

The next Canberra IA Cocktail Hour is Thursday 2 October 2008. We are
delighted to have Nathan McDonald, Service Director of the Mustor
Institute, coming down from Sydney especially to speak to us.

The Mustor Institute works hard to make the complex world of
regulation, business, contracts etc accessible for, and
understandable by, all through their novel “Regulatory DNA (MIS
1000)” approach. This system for navigating through these difficult
domains has been described as “revolutionary” and “one of the most
exciting developments”.

Nathan will demonstrate the clarity and simplicity provided by the
DNA method using examples such as:

* NSW Building Industry payment regulations;
* Austrac Anti Money Laundering and Counter Terrorism Financing
(AML/CTF) regulations;
* Australian Department of Defence contracts; and
* Australian Taxation Office regulations.

The session aims to be interactive and practical, so we want you to
submit examples of the legal texts that you have to work with (e.g.
contracts, policies, regulations and agreements). Nathan will use
these as an exercise and point of discussion. Send your examples,
preferably in Word or RTF format, to jessica [at] formulate [dot] com
[dot] au by close of business on Monday 1 October.

Join us for what’s guaranteed to be a thought-provoking and
fascinating meeting. You’re also welcome to come for an informal
dinner afterwards in Manuka/Kingston.

Time: 17:30-19:00
Day/Date: Thursday 2 October 2008
Venue: Stamford Interactive
Level 1
301 Canberra Avenue (right near Officeworks)

Please RSVP to [facibus AT gmail DOT com] as soon as possible for
catering purposes.

Cheers
