James Price QC & Adrienne Page QC are the first to take to the stage
The first of the LSLA spring lectures will take place on Tuesday 13 May 2014 at Hogan Lovells.
Topics for discussion are: "The Defamation Act 2013—sea change, or incremental reforms?" and "'Beyond defamation, striking the balance: Articles 8 and 10".
James Price QC and Adrienne Page QC of 5RB will give the lectures. James will look at whether the Defamation Act 2013 is really as radical as it appears at first glance; and Adrienne will discuss whether, in the courts, the free speech campaign has been won or lost.
Attendance is not limited to LSLA members. Anyone can apply for tickets via the website. The lectures count for CPD purposes (the reference code will appear on the admission tickets for the lectures). The cost is £20 per event or £70 for all four (non-members £25 or £90). The lectures are usually sold out, so please apply early for tickets.
The lectures will start at 6.00pm and will last approximately one hour, to include a period for questions at the end, and will be followed by drinks.
