An agenda for action

These are exciting times for the engineering profession. The Year of Engineering Success (YES) is revving up towards the official launch at the beginning of next year. SET Week looks like being the biggest and best ever with a much enhanced engineering dimension. We can look forward to stronger links between the profession and Government, industry, academia and other bodies associated with engineers and engineering. And the General Election may brings rafts of new policy initiatives that affect us, whoever wins. This year, for the first time ever, the Engineering Council was represented at all three political party conferences where party leaders and senior front bench spokesmen were lobbied on behalf of the interests of engineers.
