Michael Burrell, Chair of Edelman’s Public Affairs practice in Europe and former Chairman of the APPC (Association of Professional Political Consultants) has written an interesting piece on the prospects of regulation for political lobbyists (the industry currently self-regulates under APPC membership). Despite the feeling that “a new statutory system would be bureaucratic overkill”, it seems that regulation could become a reality before long – it is, after all, back in fashion as the apparent solution to our political and economic woes.
Michael’s thoughts can be read on SixtySecondView.
