Public Consultation Events – Call for questions
October 17, 2023 by funeral-industry-news No Comments | Category Registration
In our previous blog post, we advertised two public consultation events that the Scottish Government is hosting to give individuals the chance to discuss the collection of consultations on funeral sector regulation.
We are now calling for your questions ahead of the events. We will do our best to answer these on the day alongside more general Q&A. You can submit questions to: burialandcremation@gov.scot
There are still slots available for those who wish to attend. If you would like to attend an event, please register for a session on Eventbrite. Please note that each event will be limited to 25 attendees (if demand is greater than this, we intend to schedule an additional event).
Tuesday 24 October (12:00 – 13:00)
Thursday 2 November (18:30 – 19:30)
The consultations close on 17 November 2023 and you are encouraged to respond to the consultations and share you views with us.
