As part of this year's Festival of Politics in Edinburgh, join chair Sue Cameron, broadcaster, and panellists: Jane-Frances Kelly, Director, David Hume Institute; Rebecca Lowe, Institute of Economic Affairs; and Simon Duffy, Director, Centre for Welfare Reform, to discuss whether think tanks are the face of unelected corporate and financial elites or providers of much-needed research and expertise absent from the public debate?

Date: Thursday 11 October
Time: 14:45 to 16:15
Cost: £6.00/£4.00
