The Society of Local Authority Chief Exectuvies Wales (SOLACE Wales) holds its much-anticipated Public service Wales conference in Cardiff today (23 March).

This is one of the keynote events for professionals working across the public services in Wales – reflecting the emergence of SOLACE as one of the most important voices in Welsh local government. Chief executives and senior managers increasingly recognise the growing significance of a professional network which seeks to contribute positively to the public service reform agenda.
