The partners of Mitchells Roberton were delighted to welcome Baron Wallace of Tankerness to their offices for the latest in their "round table" lunches.

Before entering the House of Lords last year, Baron Wallace was first leader of the Scottish Liberal Democrats, first Deputy First Minister of the Scottish Executive and former Member of the Scottish Parliament for Orkney.

Chairman Donald Reid presided over a stimulating exchange of ideas and comment on a number of current issues.
