-------------------
You may recall that the House of Lords Science and Society report gave the
Parliamentary Office of Science and Technology a new remit to keep a
'watching brief' on developments in public dialogue and participation in
science and technology. This has been endorsed by the House of Commons.
As the first formal response to that new remit, POST intends to publish a
report outlining recent developments in this area (hopefully by the end of
March 2001).
I attach a draft outline for such a report.

In the spirit of greater participation, please let me have your comments on
the themes, focus and content set out in the document by 15th January.
Please feel free to circulate this to your colleagues, or even discuss it
widely with friends and family over your seasonal festive lunch!
I look forward to hearing from you soon.
Best wishes and happy New Year.
