Overview
The UK faces a housing crisis (or, perhaps, several different and overlapping crises). In the aftermath of the election, Landmark Chambers invites you to consider the future of housing in 2024 and beyond. Matthew Pennycook MP, Minister of State in the Department for Levelling Up, Housing and Communities, will join a diverse range of Landmark barristers in discussing the policy and legislative choices facing a new government.
Bringing together the unique and diverse expertise of Landmark’s barristers, our experts in planning, property, environment, public, local government, and rating and valuation law, will share their thoughts and lead the debate.
Featuring a range of headline presentations from Landmark barristers and a choice of workshops; this conference will be of interest to anyone who is involved in planning for, shaping, building, advising on, litigating about, or providing housing, services and funding for land, buildings, community services and infrastructure.
Venue: The View, Royal College of Surgeons, London, WC2A 3PE
Date: Thursday 17 October 2024, 8.45am-5pm, followed by networking
What delegates enjoyed most about last year’s conference...
Ability to speak to the various speakers either immediately after their slots or during the breaks was a nice touch.
