MR. WHITE: Good morning. My name is Brian White and I am the
Treasurer of the All Party Internet Group. On my left is Richard Allen,
MP for Sheffield Hallam.
LORD NORTHESK: I am Lord Northesk, a member of the House of Lords.
MR. WHITE: This is the second day of our oral evidence session. We
have received quite a bit of evidence during the past few weeks, and
last week we, primarily, looked at the industry side. We had quite a
number of interesting and very constructive suggestions as to the way
forward. Whereas I thought it might start with "Let's bash the
Government", it was actually far more constructive than that. I hope
that today's session will be the same.
