Wednesday 6th December 2023
6pm - 7.15pm, followed by drinks
Hogan Lovells International LLP, Atlantic House, Holborn Viaduct, London EC1A 2FG

The PLA and PBA are hosting a panel debate to explore the pros and cons of the existing 1954 Act regime and how far (and in which areas) the Law Commission could usefully focus its attention in its upcoming consultation paper, which is expected before the end of the year.  The debate will be chaired by PLA President and Upper Tribunal Judge Elizabeth Cooke.

Benjamin Faulkner will be part of  the panel of speakers alongside Mark Sefton KC (Falcon Chambers), Professor Graham Chase (Chairman of Chase and Partners LLP, Chartered Surveyors and Chartered Town Planners), Paul Tonkin (Hogan Lovells) and Daniel Drummond-Brassington (CMS UK).
