ENVIRONMENTAL AND PLANNING LAW CONFERENCE

WEDNESDAY, 11 MARCH 2015 9.00AM TO 5.15PM $810

With the increasing pace of state reform both recently enacted and proposed, environment and planning law practitioners face a myriad of legislation to weave their way around. It is a wonder that learning to incorporate these reforms into your practice can be like ‘walking a tight rope’. Our morning session will review current and proposed reforms to a variety of areas within the realm of environment and planning regulation, followed by an afternoon session which will examine topical and important issues for environment prosecutions and appeals.

Our Annual Decision Making and Reason Writing Seminar will take a different approach, when considering the time honoured question of ‘How best to structure and communicate decisions to ensure they are ‘correct and preferable’? With a practical panel workshop, our speakers will consider this question in light of some past examples of what has and hasn’t worked. In addition, we explore what are other possible challenges to good decision making.
