The Immigration Law Practitioners‟ Association (ILPA) is hosting a training session "Conducting cases in the public interest" on 30 June 2010 in London. The aim of the session is to exchange information, share experiences and hopefully have a better understanding of the practicalities of conducting cases raising issues of public importance. The session is aimed at anyone who has experience of dealing with test cases/cases raising issues of public importance and anyone interested in finding out more about how conducting such cases impacts on the day-to-day casework and how to manage the many and varied issues that are thrown up during the course of the life of such cases.
A wide range of topics will be covered including how cases can become test and how they can be created; interest of the individual client v. the wider public interest; and the options for funding such cases.
