She has experience of both contentious and non-contentious infrastructure matters also. This has led her to become a Scottish representative for the Compulsory Purchase Association Futures, and is actively involved with the Southern Scotland Young Professionals in Energy Network.
Alasdair Sutherland and Hazel Noble stand out as impeccably knowledgeable, easy to deal with in plain English and great to work with.
