SCPnet Conference 2008

Day One: Taking Stock of Where We Are Now

Regional government is undergoing expansive evolution, as a result new roles and responsibilities are emerging. The first day therefore centred upon whether or not the original SCP philosophy, objectives and delivery methodology were:

	Still appropriate today, particularly in the light of Sub-National Review.
	Adequate to address the changing needs of the regions.

The inter-regional workshops formed a key part in this evaluation, giving delegates the opportunity to share experience and learn how SCP is being applied in the different regions.

Copies of the workshop and speakers’ presentations are available for download below.
