Consumer Protection Law in the Public Sector
3 days|Delivered on request
Consumer Protection Law in the Public Sector takes the discipline and works it through the constraints of this operating context, including intellectual property, contract interpretation and the compliance obligations that come with it. The sector framing is necessary because commercial teams routinely sign obligations that legal only sees after a dispute, and generic training rarely survives contact with the local rules. Delegates leave able to work confidently with company secretarial practice, legal risk assessment and arbitration and mediation in their own organisation.
What delegates leave able to do
- Review company secretarial practice and say plainly whether it is working, measured against King IV
- Put legal risk assessment on a footing they can defend to a reviewer
- Make a decision about arbitration and mediation without waiting for a specialist
- Take ownership of cross-border contracting rather than escalating it
