Code of Conduct
|
| Definition |
A body of rules for practical guidance only and not having the force of law [...] Generally, failure to comply with a code of practice does not automatically expose the party in breach to prosecution or any civil remedy. It may, however, be relied on as evidence tending to show that he has not fulfilled some relevant statutory requirement.
