 ==Scottish Government's draft lobbying bill==
 On 30 October 2015 Holyrood drafted details of a new lobbying bill, which includes proposals for a new register and code of conduct for the industry. The draft has come under fire from both the lobbying industry and lobbying campaigners for not being far reaching enough. Director General of the PRCA [[Francis Ingham]] forwarded the following criticism:
 :      'Our industry believes in a register which covers anyone influencing government or advising others how to influence government, rather than simply defining it as oral communication. This is an improvement on Westminster’s legislation, but it falls short of the industry’s own voluntary disclosure. Civil servants, for instance, remain completely omitted from the scope.'<ref>[http://www.prweek.com/article/1370919/scottish-governments-draft-lobbying-bill-does-not-go-far-enough-say-industry-campaigners Ian Griggs, 'Scottish government's lobbying bill doesn't go far enough'],www.prweek.com, accessed 2 November 2015</ref>

 The organisation was formed in 1969 and, according to its website, has over 120 members representing "70 per cent of fee income for UK public relations consultancies". PRCA members, it states, "employ around 4,600 people and generate more than £400 million in each year in fees from clients." <ref>http://www.prca.org.uk/sites/prca.nsf/PagesBySection/GeneralInfo_AboutUs</ref>

 However, for all its claims to breadth of membership the organisation has serious internal divisions. In July 2004, PR Week reported that [[Weber Shandwick Worldwide|Weber Shandwick]] (WS) had decided to cease being a member and [[Edelman]] was thinking of following suit.<ref>http://www.prweek.com/news/news_worldwire.cfm?ID=215808&site=1 </ref>
 According to ''PR Week'', WS UK & Ireland chief executive [[Colin Byrne]] said: "I have written to the PRCA telling it that after 24 years, WS is not going to renew its membership. We are its biggest financial contributor. Large chunks of my business - financial PR and public affairs - see the PRCA as largely irrelevant, yet they contribute to the high cost of our membership, around £13,000 for 2004/2005."<ref>http://www.prweek.com/news/news_worldwire.cfm?ID=215808&site=1 </ref>
