Appearing at Hearings
In the past, Scotland has not fully embraced hearings as a method of deciding appeals. However, it is now clear from the modernising agenda that much more use will be made of them. It will become essential for all development planners (and other practitioners) to become familiar with the style and format of hearings, which require different skills from the more familiar public inquiries. This highly practical workshop, which includes a mock hearing exercise, is designed to explain what hearings are; improve both preparation and presentational skills; and enhance the overall confidence of those involved.
