Forthcoming Event
LBRO: Working together to forge a new relationship between business and its local regulators is the focus of the LBRO Conference at the Hilton Metropole Hotel, London, on Thursday, 19 November 2009.
The event will showcase progress over the previous year, reflecting major developments in the local better regulation / post-Hampton agenda. Delegates will also hear about the success of LBRO’s key initiatives such as Primary Authority, which establishes a single point of contact for local regulations for companies operating in multiple local authority areas; and the Trading Places scheme in which regulators are placed with businesses – literally experiencing the impact of their work at the ‘business end’.
The conference covers the contribution of better regulation to economic prosperity, sharing best practice, delivering quality of life and the next steps for better regulation. There will also be the latest update on how good practice is being shared among regulators through the Beacon theme ‘Cutting Red Tape.
