IRRV Forum Service 2010
Connecting Professionals since 1952
The IRRV Forum Service has been providing a platform for discussion on revenues and benefits issues at both a national and local level since 1952. It is aimed at those involved in or with an interest in local government revenues and benefits.
Forum membership is on a corporate rather than individual basis and is open to all public bodies, local authorities and private companies, irrespective of membership or involvement in other Institute activities.
Join the IRRV Forum Service and join hundreds of practitioners working in revenues and benefits (both public and private sector). At a time when budgets are being cut you cannot afford not to be an IRRV Forum Service member.
Membership includes
1. Quarterly regional meetings with a technical update and expert guest speakers focussing on topical issues. Forum members receive two complimentary places at each regional meeting (so a total of eight free places). Refreshments and lunch are included at the meetings. Forum members can choose to join any of the regions.
2. Unlimited user licence to the Forum Portal where forum members can book, view and download agendas, maps, minutes and presentations.
3. Unrestricted access to the enhanced Technical Enquiry Service. This service is designed as a resource for every employee to have at his or her fingertips. Members can submit their Technical Queries via the Forum Portal and qualified Institute practitioners will respond with their expert opinion.
4. Minimum of 10% discount at all major conferences run by the Institute.
5. Six complimentary day delegate places at IRRV Training Days and Revenues and Benefits One Day events. Training courses are run by experienced practitioners covering Council Tax, Non-Domestic Rates and Benefits.

Additional places at these Training Days and One Day Events are offered at discounted rates.
