Colleagues
I recently circulated the appended advertisement for Lord Jenkin's visit to
Bristol to speak about the Science and Society Report on 30 October.
With great regret, for personal reasons Lord Jenkin has subsequently had to
postpone his presentation until the New Year (date to be fixed).
A large number of people have already enrolled and I have contacted all
these directly. If you were going to respond to this circular, PLEASE DO
STILL REGISTER YOUR INTEREST, and I will contact you when the new date is
fixed.
