ABOUT THIS COURSE
What is the situation one year on from 'T Day'?
Is it what we expected?

The Licensing (Scotland) Act 2005 is now completely in force but there are still many questions surrounding the Act:

• Has it been implemented effectively?
• Is it what we thought?
• What is yet to be resolved?
• What are the challenges we're still facing?

This full day conference is presented by Scotland's leading licensing specialists and looks practically at the Licensing (Scotland) Act 2005 a year to the day from implementation. The event will provide you with awareness of the regulation of licensing and highlight the many pitfalls and obstacles we now all face in trying to understand, implement and advise on this complicated area of law.
