Making markets work in devolved contexts
11 April 2008
Please see below the programme for the SCLF Spring meeting, which takes place this Friday (11 April) at the Court Senate Suite, Strathclyde University, 22 Richmond Street, Glasgow. Please note the discussion will start at 09.10.
As you will see we have an impressive range of speakers from far and wide, with chairman Iain McMillan of CBI Scotland keeping our focus on the practical rather than political. Our job is to unpick the experiences of competition and consumer protection bodies working in central/reserved roles and in devolved contexts to discover what arrangements may best contribute to the economic success of Scotland. We look forward to a rich and stimulating discussion of significant issues not regularly appearing in other conversations or commissions.
For those already signed up, we look forward to seeing you there. If you are still thinking about it and have not yet registered, don’t delay in emailing ashley.e.smith@strath.ac.uk to secure your place.
