Association of Regulatory and Disciplinary Lawyers Seminar

Public confidence and the public interest: who and what is the ‘public’ in 2018

Date: Monday 23 April 2018 at 5.30pm

Venue: DAC Beachcroft LLP, Fetter Lane, London, EC4A 1BN

Speaker: Mary O’Rourke QC

This seminar is expected to be fully booked, so please register your interest as soon as possible. Overview ARDL continues its 2018 Seminar Programme with this seminar which is being repeated in London due to the level of interest when previously held in Manchester in February. The question of the public interest and what it represents is one which is at the forefront of regulatory decision-making. It is particularly topical in light of the recent Bawa Garba case. ARDL is delighted to provide a forum for consideration and discussion of this important issue. The speaker is Mary O’Rourke QC, a long-standing and leading practitioner in professional discipline with a significant medical defence practice. Mary also appears in related judicial review and employment matters. Mary will offer her perspective on the public interest and who or what it is that is ‘the public’. Join us for what will be an interesting and lively seminar.

There will be time for questions and discussion.
