Everything Happens Somewhere - Working together across the public sector

Conference, exhibition and presentation of the National Gazetteers Exemplar Awards 2011

The conference and exhibition coincides with a big change in the supply and availability of address data – the availability of the national address gazetteer.

The overall theme for the conference is 'Working together across the public sector'.  This signifies the new working relationships across the public sector under the PSMA and the availability of the national address gazetteer which will become available to the whole of the public sector once it is launched in the autumn.
