FLEET News is to stage three regional seminars on key fleet issues in conjunction with leading fleet industry companies. The new 'Fleet News Interactive Seminars' are being staged in November and December at venues in the north, south and Midlands, and stem from the success of seminars held as part of the annual two-day Fleet News conference at the Belfry.

This year the seminars are being held as an event in their own right and Fleet News has decided to regionalise the event in a bid to make them more accessible to fleet bosses. The Fleet News conference will now be staged in the new year.

The seminars are being held on November 19 at the Hinckley Island Hotel, near Coventry; on November 28 at The Old Swan Hotel, Harrogate; and on December 3 at Sopwell House, St Albans. At each of the events there will be seminars by Deloitte Touche on tax issues and how they affect fleets, Vauxhall on environmental issues, Fleetlease on personal leasing and Shell Fuel and Fleet Services on fuel cards and fuel management. A fifth sponsor has yet to be finalised. Each seminar will last about 60 minutes and delegates will have the opportunity to attend four of the five presentations.

The cost of attending one of the three days is £99 plus VAT per person. For further details phone Kerry Young on 01733 467038.
