The Conference Managers will accept accommodation deposits up until 25 July 2006 and will settle the deposit with the hotel. Delegates must settle the balance of their account with the hotel concerned upon check out.
Late bookings can be made through the Conference Managers after 25 July 2006 but are subject to availability and credit card details are required to secure the reservation.

Late Arrivals
