The $20.00 limit in Medicines Australia Code refers to "brand name
reminders" such as pens, caps, etc.
Beverages are defined by Medicines Australia Code as part of hospitality:
"Any hospitality provided by companies either directly or by
sponsorship or assistance to the organisers of educational
meetings, must be secondary to the educational purpose."
"Hospitality:
Should not bring discredit on the industry;
Should successfully withstand public, professional and
community scrutiny; and
Conform to professional and community standards."
So I don't think providing Chivas whisky would fit with the above unless
(possibly) it was only one 30 ml shot as a pre-dinner drink to a
legitimate educational function...
Cheers
