Intro to Bills - Legal Awareness
Where do you start when dealing with a proposal to introduce a new law into Parliament?
What steps are involved in preparing legislation and who should you involve in the process?
“… a very good overview of the legislative process for Bills … presented in a clear and interesting way … slides were really good and they have been provided so can be referred back to … a very interesting an informative training course.”
