Trade associations
We have
a proven record of presenting the concerns of trade associations and their
members to Ministers, Shadow Ministers, Select Committees, MPs, Peers and civil
servants.
Trade associations have a dual role, with a duty to the public as well as their
members. In some cases the rogue operator can be a significant threat to an
industry’s reputation. For others, high insurance premiums and unwarranted ‘red
tape’ force their members into liquidation.
Building parliamentary and political support for such organisations can be
complex and demanding. It requires an appreciation of the needs of an often
wide-ranging membership in conjunction with the over-arching goals of that
industry’s representative body.
