BRANCH NEWS<br />

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 />
