Meanwhile, odds’ that something might turn out better than we thought. most are abiding by the adage to ‘Stay Calm and Carry On’ – after all, that is what we do. So it is with our system of public Justice – time and again promises are made and excitement is generated … to believe that I hope that everyone has a decent break over the summer, even we can effect real changes for the better only for those hopes though we no longer have a period of Court closure to match to be plunged into the despair of ‘real politic’ and the ugly truth. the closing of Parliament (perhaps our Wellness teams can Most politicians don’t care.

Nonetheless, there are many who work tirelessly on our behalves to keep the dreams alive – they deserve significant credit when they succeed, in any small measure (and there is plenty to celebrate within this edition). The initiatives on Wellness at the Bar have been hugely successful – bringing together those with a real interest in their own welfare and the welfare of colleagues. Many Judges have attended and spoken frankly about their Karim Khalil QC experiences. It is having a profound effect on those who attend and is providing an interesting springboard for Bar-Judicial Drystone Chambers discussions on many topics of common interest.

  • 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.
