Cards

Having sent off my cards in the post today it was good to get into the office and open the ones we’ve received. Cards included one from Lady Smith, President of the Scottish Tribunals; and from the First Minister and her husband.

Then the second meeting of the short life working group looking at managing hearings and what we should require of our panel members both by way of training and expectations of chairing hearings. Broad agreement emerging about the need to attend relevant training and support for those who need it and for the team working needed to manage hearings. More in the New Year.
