An "Accompanying Person" is someone who accompanies a full delegate but takes no part in the conference. An example is the wife or husband of an author. The following conditions apply:-

• An accompanying person must register with a Full or Student delegate (ie they may not attend the symposium alone).
• The Accompanying Person registration provides morning and afternoon teas/coffees, and lunch each day for one Accompanying person.
• It does not allow entry to any conference sessions or talks, or a published paper, or a set of proceedings.
