Gambling for Local Authorities: Licensing, Planning and Regeneration, second edition
Friday, May 14, 2010

We are pleased to announce the second edition of Gambling for Local Authorities: Licensing, Planning and Regeneration, which is being published next month.

This edition has been updated to take account of a number of important developments in law and policy over the last 3 years.

The book goes out as an Institute of Licensing publication and is an important part of the Institute’s financing. No writer takes a fee, so the entire proceeds, less printing and mailing costs, go straight to the charity.

A 10% pre-publication discount is being offered, to help us gauge more accurately the number to be printed and so save costs.

The book can be ordered through the Institute’s web-site here or using the flyer here.

Feedback and reviews from the first edition were very good, details of which can be found in our previous article here.

London Legal Sponsored Walk
Friday, May 07, 2010

On Monday 17th May, the 6th London Legal Sponsored Walk will be taking place – members from across the legal professions will walk 10km across London, starting at the RCJ and finishing at the Law Society. Walk leaders include The Lord Chief Justice, The Master of the Rolls, the Presidents of the Law Society and ILEX and the Chair of the Bar Council.

Members of Chambers will be walking to raise money towards the work of the London Legal Support Trust. Last year we raised around £1,500 and we hope to exceed that this year.

The Trust supports law centres in London and the Home Counties.
