We consider invitations for speakers based on our priorities, capacity, the topic’s relevance and the value we can bring to the audience.

Below is information for organisers who want to invite an AUSTRAC speaker to an event.  

How to make a request

Submit an online speaker request form. Provide as much information and notice as possible. 

We generally require at least 4 weeks’ notice to consider and support these requests. The more details you provide, the better we’re able to find the right person for your event. If you don’t provide enough information, we won’t be able to consider your request.

If we have a speaker

We'll contact you by email to let you know if your request has been accepted. If it is, we'll introduce you to the speaker and work with you on next steps for our involvement.

Access to recordings and publications

We also require access to, and copies of, any recordings or publications featuring our representatives. We have the right to publish on our channels at our discretion. 

This guidance sets out how we interpret certain Australian legislation, along with associated Rules and regulations. Australian courts are ultimately responsible for interpreting these laws and determining if any provisions of these laws are contravened. 

The examples and scenarios in this guidance are meant to help explain our interpretation of these laws. They’re not exhaustive or meant to cover every possible scenario.

This guidance provides general information and isn't a substitute for legal advice. This guidance avoids legal language wherever possible and it might include generalisations about the application of the law. Some provisions of the law referred to have exceptions or important qualifications. In most cases your particular circumstances must be taken into account when determining how the law applies to you.
