Terra Firma Chambers is hosting its 4th Annual Local Government Conference on Thursday 6th June 2013 at the Mackenzie Building, Edinburgh.  Chaired by Roy Martin QC, this full day conference will focus on means of reducing the risk of challenge. It will feature a range of talks in a number of areas of particular interest to local authorities, including Public Procurement, Employment, Regulated Investigatory Powers, Planning, Common Good and Licensing, as well as a session on Practical Guidance on Reducing the Risk in Decision Making. The conference has been accredited for four and a half hours CPD for its own members and is eligible for a similar award from the Law Society for the solicitor branch of the profession.  The conference, sponsored by Wesleyan for Lawyers, will be followed by a drinks reception and delegates are invited to attend either for the full duration or for part of the conference and subsequent reception.

Once again there will be no charge for attendance at this event. Previous years’ conferences have been fully subscribed and interest is expected to be high once again.  For more information, and to reserve your place at the event, please visit our seminar section.
