Don't miss your chance to attend the annual event that brings the entire puiblic affairs community together, for the ASPA conference on 3rd March, at Dynamic Earth in Edinburgh.
Open to members and non-members of ASPA, the primary event sponsor is Timesscotland and event host is Peter MacMahon.
The day is packed day, combining political insight, workshops and networking that will be of interest to anyone working in, or around Holyrood as we head towards key elections, and the formation of the next Parliament after May 7th.
Session highlights include:
- incisive and insightful analysis of the latest polling trends from Mark Diffley in the immediate run up to polling day;
- Reform UK leader in Scotland Malcolm Offord CVO in conversation - what lies ahead for a Scottish Parliament with Reform UK MSPs playing a role for the first time;
- Three leading participants in joint workings to form governments in the past - Cathy Jamieson FRSA, Michael Moore and Geoff Aberdein - compare notes on potential coalition arrangements - what works and what doesn't?;
- Graeme Roy examines the fiscal situation to be inherited by the next Scottish Parliament, factoring in the UK wider environment, including the Chancellor's Spring Statement earlier in the day;
- Networking lunch, to which all MSPs have been invited, sponsored by Orbit Communications.
