Calls for Scotland to Create an Environmental Court
A recent report by the Environmental Rights Centre for Scotland (ECRS) has called for the creation of an Environmental Court of Tribunal for Scotland.
It was a pleasure working with Julie Hamilton and Lynsay Cargill. They provided a comprehensive instruction, which set out clear parameters for the scope of our input as well as excellent advice in regards to the legal scope of our opinion. Throughout the dispute they were extremely approachable and knowledgeable, while demonstrating their firm grasp of the complex commercial issues which existed in the case.
