Response to Freedom of Information request (FOI_10-11)
I would like to receive the following as your response to my FOI request:
The date of first meeting of any CRU academic staff involved with Sir Muir or any
independent member of the inquiry. I am not interested in meetings with UEA
administrators but with academics.
The first meeting between CRU academic staff and the review team took place on 18
December 2009.
The number of meetings with academic staff that have so far occurred up to the point
of receipt of this request.
To 29 January 2010, the Russell Review team had taken part in three (3) separate
meetings with CRU academic staff
The names and status of independent members of the inquiry that have met with UEA
staff, for example I would assume that Sir Muir will be helped by a computer scientist
and a scientist who have no connections with UEA.
The names of the team members are available from the Independent Climate Change
