Supplier Assurance in the UK Railways – An overview of the various schemes, processes and options plus a look at the future.

There is currently a seemingly confusing array of assurance and approval arrangements in the UK Rail sector. Gary Plant’s presentation will attempt to explain the main ones, what they are attempting to do and how to make the best of them. There will be an explanation of RSSB’s current work to review and improve the current arrangements and plenty of time for questions and answers.

Business Support in the East Midlands.

There has been a need to simplify publicly funded business support in the region and to make it more accessible to businesses. John O’Reilly will outline the key objectives of the new Business Support Strategy launched recently by emda. It will also summarise the services and support available to businesses, and noting how these align with the Government's recently announced portfolio of 'Solutions for Business'. A Question and Answer session will follow.
