18/6/10	One day conference: Remedies for Breach of EU Law Revisited 18 June 2010 at King's College London In June 1995 the UKAEL in association with the Institute of European Law at the University of Birmingham organised a conference entitled ‘Remedies for Breach of EC Law before National Courts’. Contributions were later published in a book entitled Remedies for Breach of EC Law. With this conference, both the UK Association for European Law and the Centre of European Law would like to express their appreciation for their respective former president, The Rt Hon The Lord Slynn of Hadley, who chaired the original conference. The conference was a resounding success which was not surprising as the programme featured an array of most distinguished speakers, commentators and chairs. This conference was organised with the Centre of European at King's College London.

Within days of its announcement this conference, which was free for all, was snapped up by UKAEL members and local lawyers so that a waiting list had to be operated. Despite the disruption in air traffic the event went ahead with some amendments to the programme. Feedback has been very positive and shown great interest in the issues discussed.

16/12/09	Evening seminar: Lisbon: A Treaty for the 21st Century? On 16 December 2009 the UK Association for European Law organised an evening seminar on the newly ratified Lisbon Treaty. The event attracted a large number of UKAEL members and students and packed the Edmond J Safra lecture theatre - despite wintry weather conditions. The seminar which was led by Paul Berman from the Treasurer Solicitors Department and Cabinet Office, proved to be of great interest for those attending. With contributions from Professors Eeckhout and Tridimas and UKAEL president Sir Francis Jacobs QC the evening lasted nearly three hours without a break, a credit to the speakers and their audience. The successful seminar was rounded off with a drinks reception, a chance to catch up and meet someone new. Presentations and event details

A full and lively audience drawn from the UK and Ireland enjoyed a day in the tranquil setting of the Goodenough College in London’s Bloomsbury. This was a unique opportunity to stay abreast of crucial recent developments and get practical advice from those with considerable experience of implementing, advising on and adjudicating in Ireland, the United Kingdom and beyond the islands.
