Revised Code of Conduct
The Board has recently revised its Code of Professional Conduct & Practice to include information about Family Assessment Reports in Court Proceedings. A new Section 3.8 has been included and it is hoped that this will assist psychologists working in this area, and reduce the number of complaints received by the Board.
To download/print a copy of the current Code (December 2007) please go to the Publications - Code of Conduct & Practice section of this website.

* Information Sheet for Notifiers
* Notification of Complaint Form
