What’s it about?

lawflyersmlA briefing to help you understand public law and how to use it to protect your organisation and its funding

Ever worried about funding cuts?
Ever felt that a decision is unfair?

Voluntary and community groups work with public bodies all the time – whether local councils, health authorities, the Big Lottery or government departments. Why does it feel like they always have the power?

This session is a brief introduction to the key principles of Public Law and ways you can address wrongs. With case studies and practical tips it could be the most useful session you attend this year. Come along and find out that public bodies don’t have the power – you do.

The session will cover the key principles and how to spot
• Illegality
• Unfairness
• Irrationality
• Maladministration

By the end of the session you will have ideas of what remedies are open to you and how to go about getting a fair decision!
