Digital Participation Framework

Further to John's blog,,

 I recently (Wednesday 7th May) sent the e-mail below to the central enquiries unit of the Scottish Government http://www.scotland.gov.uk/Contacts

Can I please encourage others to place similar enquiries: I am most concerned that the success we have achieved by getting Information Literacy in the RSE report will not translate into Government action or policy unless we continue pressing for it to happen

thank you

Ian

"Dear Sir/Madam

I have been reading the above Framework http://www.scotland.gov.uk/Publications/2014/04/6821/downloads with interest and am pleased to see that it incorporates some of the recommendations from the interim Royal Society of Edinburgh report “Spreading the benefits of digital participation” .

I recently attended the launch in Edinburgh of the final report of the RSE, which has some important new sections added since the interim report was published.

I am keen to know therefore whether the final report will form the basis, either for an amendment to the national framework; or if not, how the important conclusions from the final report will be taken forward by the Scottish Government and would very much appreciate your assistance with this key question

Thank you

Yours faithfully
