FOLLOWING feedback<br />
received last year, the <strong>2018</strong><br />
Turner Lecture broke with<br />
tradition as it was held on<br />
a Wednesday evening for<br />
the first time in its 18-<br />
year history. Once again, the intimate<br />
surroundings of the Strand, Fleet and Bell<br />
Suite at the Law Society, Chancery Lane,<br />
was the venue and around 60 members<br />
and guests were in attendance. In addition,<br />
there was a welcome return for Robert<br />
Turner, who was unable to attend the event<br />
last year.<br />
The format this year was an interactive<br />
debate/question and answer session and<br />
Richard Seadon, Kent Branch Committee<br />
Member, introduced the session and acted<br />
as moderator/time-keeper throughout.<br />
Following a drinks reception at 17.30, the<br />
delegates then filed into their seats and,<br />
Turner Lecture<br />
The Law Society<br />
in turn, were duly captivated, cultivated<br />
and even somewhat concerned by the<br />
illustrations and presentations of the three<br />
panellists/speakers.<br />
First up was Richard Mawrey QC of<br />
Henderson Chambers who gave a wry but<br />
informative insight into the new Pre-Action<br />
Protocols that were introduced in October<br />
2017. The talk covered the processes<br />
which now had to be adopted by creditors<br />
pursuing money from individuals, and<br />
highlighted the increased time involved as<br />
well as potential pitfalls and scenarios that<br />
could arise for creditors.<br />
Ruth Duncan, immediate Past President<br />
of the Insolvency Practitioners’ Association<br />
(IPA) then took to the stage to explain what<br />
her role involved, the current status of the<br />
world of insolvency, and then discussed<br />
the new rules affecting the Insolvency Act<br />
1986.<br />
The final slot was reserved for<br />
Matthew Richardson, Barrister at Law<br />
with Henderson Chambers, and worldacknowledged<br />
expert in the field of<br />
Cyber-Crime. Some of the statistics, losses<br />
of money involved, and security breaches<br />
covered by Matthew (all backed up with<br />
real-life examples), certainly gave the<br />
audience a jolt as to just how vulnerable<br />
we all are to our personal data being<br />
accessed.<br />
A brief question and answer session<br />
followed the talks before several of the<br />
guests then adjourned for a delightful<br />
dinner in an adjoining room at the Law<br />
Society. Thanks again must go to Richard<br />
for his efforts in making the event such a<br />
success.<br />
