WRITTEN REPORT EXPECTATIONS:

REQUIREMENTS IN PREPARATION OF THE REPORT:

The organisation that you work for has a well-respected profile in the profession and therefore expects all staff members to demonstrate a high degree of professionalism.

In the written advice that you are to prepare you are expected to demonstrate that you understand the relevant law and how the law applies to the issues raised by the client and come to a logical conclusion.

You are also expected to consider the law and the circumstances given the current economic environment that Singapore and the rest of the world is in and how it may impact on your advice to the client.

In your written advice you must relate the law back to the circumstances of the client. Mere statements of law without relevance to the client facts will be penalised. (no need to copy whole chunk of law like sections of the CA or Model Regulations)

You must be able to justify your conclusion by reference to the relevant legislation in the Companies Act, or any other legislation you think appropriate, regulatory guidelines issued by ACRA or any other government department where relevant and case law.
