It hasn’t gone away. ICAEW North West Region take on BREXIT The topic of BREXIT has for some time been forgotten about in the midst of the Coronavirus pandemic, but it now looms large on the horizon. So, in partnership with the local Growth Platform, the ICAEW North West team brought together a panel of leading experts to tackle the key issues around BREXIT to support the local business community. Professor Michael Dougan gave the keynote address. Michael is a Professor of European Law and Jean Monnet Chair in EU Law, at the University of Liverpool. Professor Dougan is an academic specialist in EU constitutional law at the University of Liverpool – so before a couple of months ago, maybe not the first guy you'd want to chat to at a dinner party. He has a Masters 10
and a PhD from the University of Cambridge, and more than 20 years of professional experience working on the EU. He has previously acted as an advisor to the Cabinet Office and has given advice to the House of Commons Treasury Select Committee about what on earth is going to happen next. Basically, it's safe to say he knows his stuff!
Although BREXIT can be quite a dry subject our Professor was a certain hit with our guests asking for more.
Prof Dougan gave a candid account of the story so far, with a key summary of the stumbling blocks and potential issues that BREXIT will bring and the car crash that could potentially follow.
“I could listen to him for hours”
Our expert panel then took a vast range of questions from the audience on employment status, movement of people, work permits, VAT issues and managing currency and cash flow pre and post BREXIT.
Comments from attendees
“Professor Dougan’s talk was exceptional”
“brilliant” So onwards we go from
“project fear to project reality” was the concluding cry.
