>DfT Evidence and Research Strategy - Draft
>
>We have today published a draft of the DfT Evidence and Research
>Strategy. You can access the document on the DfT website at
>www.dft.gov.uk/ers. This new strategy represents a significant step in
>a process to improve the quality and comprehensiveness of the evidence
>DfT uses. We invite feedback from all those with a stake in using,
>developing and delivering transport. In particular we seek views on
>whether we have identified the right priorities, and on the
>cross-cutting and longer term issues which set the strategic context for
>all our evidence.
>
>In view of the large number of organisations and individuals that may
>wish to comment, we are releasing it in draft form. We will then
>publish a revised, printed document once we have received and considered
>any comments. Please feel free to pass this invitation on to colleagues
>within or outside your organisation. Comments on evidence priorities
>received by 22 February 2006 will be taken into account in the final
>document and in individual policy areas' planning for 2006-07 (unit
>strategies). Comments received after that date will inform further
>development of the strategies.
>
>Please send your comments and feedback to either of the addresses below.
> Please also use these addresses if you require a hard copy.
