The event attracted delegates from across interpreting and translation services, including the private sector, as well as from across the country.  This helped to bring together both a snapshot of particular issues that are experienced across different regions, and of good practice in both practice and commissioning. This report outlines some of the developments reported by participants, at local and regional levels, and highlights both concerns and examples of innovation and good practice.  This report was produced as part of our work with the Department of Health Strategic Partners programme.
