Do you Think Giving Evidence is Easy?

You may be a frequent flyer or a novice, but never ever be ill prepared before entering a judicial environment. It only takes one flippant remark, a comment without suitable foundations, or one biased statement and at best you will be digging yourself and your evidence out of the quick sand. At worst you could leave the witness box with your reputation and expert witness career in tatters. The same is true of written evidence. This event is hugely relevant to anyone who appears in any judicial environment. The speakers have been invited because of their skills and experience across Landlord & Tenant, rating and CPO practice.

Certificates of Appropriate Alternative Development

The Compulsory Purchase Association invite you to attend this virtual event. It has been 9 years since changes to how Certificates of Appropriate Alternative Development (CAADs) were brought in by the Localism Act 2011. How have those changes worked? What has gone well? What could be improved? With a run of recent cases in the last couple of years on CAADs in the Upper Tribunal, this year’s lecture will look at what we can learn from those and examine the current process to consider if it is producing an efficient and effective outcome in determining alternative appropriate development.

Implications of Safeguarding of Land for Future Projects

Whilst promoters of schemes say that safeguarding protects land from conflicting developments, others see safeguarding as one of the most draconian parts of the whole CPO process - there is little scrutiny on its introduction, no review required once it has been imposed, no long stop date and is virtually incapable of being challenged once introduced - safeguarding remains in place for schemes including Crossrail 2 and Heathrow expansion. Why not join this 1 hour lunchtime discussion?
