  • Master's Speech, 19.12.16
    Page 1 of 4 Wardens, My Lord Mayor, Sheriffs, Alderman, Masters, Prime Wardens, Distinguished Guests. Fellow Turners, Ladies and Gentlemen. A very good evening to you all and welcome to this wonderful Skinners’ Hall. It is always a pleasure to dine under the atmospheric murals painted by Sir Frank Brangwyn and I sincerely thank Skinners Company for allowing us to be here. Thank you Master Skinner. This Hall, like Turners’ first Hall in Philpott Street, was burnt to the ground in the Great Fire of 1666. This catastrophic event has been widely commemorated through-out the City during the last six months with numerous exciting activities. These Commemorations culminated in the impressive burning of the wooden model of the City on a barge moored by Blackfriars Bridge … a most remarkable and memorable spectacle. However, there is still a fascinating exhibition at the Museum of London that should not be missed. In the excellent catalogue titled “Butcher, Baker, Candlestick Maker - Surviving the Great fire of London”, there is a whole chapter relating to the 17th Century ‘Turning’ Trade in the City and identifies fascinating new information on the business relationship between Samuel Pepys and a Mr Howells, a Turner in Tower Street, who specialised in turning Lignum Vitae. It’s on is on until April 2017. My Lord Mayor, we greatly appreciate you and the Sheriffs taking the time to join with us this evening, particularly as we know what a busy schedule you all have. You are the 689th person to have been elected to this high office and the dedication that you have shown to the City over the years is legendary.

  • Fighting Economic Crime - a Shared Responsibility!
    THIRTY-SEVENTH INTERNATIONAL SYMPOSIUM ON ECONOMIC CRIME SUNDAY 1st SEPTEMBER - SUNDAY 8th SEPTEMBER 2019 JESUS COLLEGE, UNIVERSITY OF CAMBRIDGE Fighting economic crime - a shared responsibility! Centre of Development Studies The 37th Cambridge International Symposium on Economic Crime Fighting economic crime- a shared responsibility! The thirty-seventh international symposium on economic crime brings together, from across the globe, a unique level and depth of expertise to address one of the biggest threats facing the stability and development of all our economies. The overarching theme for the symposium is how we can better and more effectively work together in preventing, managing and combating the threat posed by economically motivated crime and abuse. The programme underlines that this is not just the responsibility of the authorities, but us all. These important and timely issues are considered in a practical, applied and relevant manner, by those who have real experience whether in law enforcement, regulation, compliance or simply protecting their own or another’s business. The symposium, albeit held in one of the world’s leading universities, is not a talking shop for those with vested interests or for that matter an academic gathering. We strive to offer a rich and deep analysis of the real issues and in particular threats to our institutions and economies presented by economic crime and abuse. Well over 700 experts from around the world will share their experience and knowledge with other participants drawn from policy makers, law enforcement, compliance, regulation, business and the professions. The programme is drawn up with the support of a number of agencies and organisations across the globe and the Organising Institutions and principal sponsors greatly value this international commitment.

  • 25. December 2018.Pdf
    LIVERY December 2018 BRIEFING LIVERY COMMITTEE - THE FUTURE In early November 2018, past Lord Mayor, Alderman Charles Bowman, hosted a briefing at Mansion House for Masters, Prime Wardens, Upper Bailiffs and Clerks on progress with the Pan Livery Initiative. He was joined by Vicky Russell, Chairman of the Livery Committee, who was able to talk about work currently in-hand to enhance the Committee’s role. Further details of the Pan Livery Initiative update are set out below. Vicky explained that the Committee essentially came into existence in 1864, in order to ‘consider the best means and take such measures as they deem advisable for securing the Guildhall from the intrusion of strangers at the meetings in Common Hall’ for the election of the Sheriffs and the Lord Mayor. Overseeing the arrangements for Common Hall remains an important part of what the Committee does, particularly when there are contested elections, but the terms of reference of the Committee are broader than that. The Committee’s objects require it to undertake initiatives ‘aimed at creating an awareness amongst liverymen and the general public, especially opinion formers, of the work of the livery companies in their trade, professions….and charitable activities’ and to ‘undertake such other tasks which are intended to be in the best interests of the general body of the livery’. This includes advising livery companies on best practice generally and ‘acting as a forum to which livery companies can bring matters of concern for discussion’. The Committee thus acts as a conduit for information and communication. To that end, it runs several training courses and last year over 550 people came on those courses, which are hosted by the City of London Corporation.
