I have posted a draft of the paper entitled 'Trust versus scope: A Critique
of the White Paper 'Building Trust in Statistics'' at
<http://www.mailbase.ac.uk/lists/radstats/files/WhitePaper.html>.
The main theme of the paper is that the concentration on building trust in
the White Paper has resulted in a very narrow view of the functions of
statistics and of National Statistics.
If anyone has difficulty reading or downloading the file I'd be please to
email them a copy.
Comments on the draft will be very welcome.
