9 In our experience of giving advice to ministers, there are three key things to consider: Different lenses Effective communication is essential Help policy makers solve their problems I will go through each of these in turn 9 Science Advice in Government
10 Different lenses Effective communication is essential Help policy makers solve their problems 10 Science Advice in Government
11 Different lenses Scientific evidence is just one part of the picture Politics We can provide the very best evidence but must recognise that the lenses of politics and the machinery of delivery will all interact to produce the final outcome. Evidence Policy Delivery Science Advice in to Government - Auckland
12 Different lenses: Shale gas Scientific concerns Hydraulic fracturing Fossil fuel, engineering and geological: Loss of integrity in aquifer zone Seismic events Methane release Understanding public attitudes Fracking Anti-fracking movements are not solely concerned with emissions or the risks of pollution or seismicity: Opposition to the oil and gas industry Not in my back yard Opposition to continued exploitation of fossil fuels in general 12 Science Advice in Government
13 Khat Different lenses: Respect the different roles ACMD report khat has no direct causal link to adverse medical effects, other than a small number of reports of an association between khat use and significant liver toxicity. Home Office response Based on ACMD s advice, I recognise that current evidence shows no direct causal link to medical harms (However) I am concerned that the UK is at serious risk of becoming a single, regional hub for the onward illegal trafficking of khat I have therefore made the decision to control khat as a Class C drug Science Advice in Government
