<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:.5in">I think we have to presume at least SOME of those above us actually want to understand what we think - I know, maybe just a fond hope. But when I was working at a public interest law centre, we always wrote a summary
- no more than a page or page and a half - on what we were saying. That way, there was an odds on chance the relevant Minister/Minister’s adviser would read it. In attachments, put the bulk of what you want to say and - because it usually involved legislative
change - another appendix for the Parliamentary draftsperson so they knew what you wanted. And generally, that was the best way to be heard - and have something happen. Exec summaries do help - as long as they can be read in under 60 seconds!<o:p></o:p></p>
