Halogen (http://www.halogencom.com) is a communications consultancy which according to its website specialises in public relations, communications, reputation and event management, strategic marketing, crisis management, planning development and property solutions.

Its development director is the ex chairman of the Scottish Conservative party, and ex government minister, Raymond Robertson. Its media consultant is well known Conservative journalist Tim Luckhurst. It has also recently hired ex Labour First Minister Henry Mcleish. As such they proclaim that "Halogen Communications is a collective with superior knowledge and unrivalled experience in politics and the media having a former Scottish Executive First Minister, a former Scottish Office Minister and a former Editor of a national daily newspaper included in the team".


In their initial website thay stated that Two of their main aims were to 'Assist the public sector in Scotland during this period of change and reform and to Assist the growth of entrepreneurial businesses. They do not make clear if assisting the public sector requires entrepreneurial businesses though the inference here is that it does.

Their updated website asserts that "Central to Halogen’s business is the provision of public/media relations and political/government relations services and the team’s excellent contacts with journalists and politicians prove invaluable here". [(http://www.halogencom.com/html/03_vision.htm)] Given the intimate links that some of their employees have with government it is perhaps unsurprising that they proclaim that these links may prove invaluable. They do not, however, make it clear how, in practice, these invaluable links can, and do, help their clients.
