The 1st Junior UK Competition Lawyers Conference - 1 December 2006

The Editors of the Competition Law Journal are pleased to present:The 1st Junior UK Competition Lawyers Conferenceat the Competition Appeal Tribunal

on 1 December 2006 at 2:00-5.30 pm

This conference is open to all those involved in UK competition law, whether in practice, in public service or in academia. Admission to the conference is free. The conference programme is attached to this email.

Due to the nature of the event and the capacity constraints, we have decided to impose the following conditions:

Applicants should be junior. For example, we would not expect applications from partners of law firms, QCs, senior officials in public service or senior academics.
If you wish to apply for a place, you must do so personally; we will not accept bookings through others or any block bookings.
To ensure that there is a good cross-section of the junior ‘competition community’, we may have to limit the numbers of attendees from any one organisation.
If you are given a place and subsequently discover that you are unable to take it up, please notify the organisers as soon as possible, so that your place may be given to someone else.
On the basis of expressions of interest to date we anticipate that demand will be extremely high. Please do contact us as soon as possible at lisa.white@linklaters.com. Subject to the above, places will be given on a ‘first come, first served’ basis. If you have already expressed an interest in attending, you must still apply.

We hope to see you at the conference.
