Written after the file closed

Pieces by the people who write our board material. They come out of work we have done, not out of a content plan, so they appear irregularly.

What a board actually reads

A board pack is written in the order the work happened. It is read in the order the risk sits, and those two orders are almost never the same.

We write these when a file closes and there is something worth keeping. We do not keep a schedule for them. If you want the method now, write to us and say which decision you are facing. All four of us see what arrives, and the one who covers your sector replies.

A note when we publish

It goes out when we publish something, and not otherwise. We write about method: what a board actually reads, and what to do when the evidence arrives after the vote. No forwarding of other people’s articles. Leave whenever you like. The link is at the foot of every send.

We keep your address for this list and use it for nothing else.
