Brave new world
Thanks to James Graham for drawing my attention to the fact that the Westminster Parliament has stepped into the brave new world of e-democracy.
A press release from the newly reconstituted Welsh Affairs Committee reveals that under the Chairmanship of Aberavon MP, Dr. Hywel Francis, the committee is to get straight down to work with a major inquiry into the Government's White Paper: Better Governance for Wales. Interested parties are invited to submit evidence to the Clerk of the Committee. The press release continues:
"If possible, please supply an electronic version in MS Word or Rich Text format, either by e-mail to welshcom@parliament.uk or on a disk. If submitting by e-mail or e-mail attachment, a letter should also be sent validating the e-mail."
I wonder if they will allow us to validate the e-mail by pigeon post.
