NDA Response to Stakeholder Comments received during summer 2008
Future Engagement

At the workshops held before Christmas 2008, one of the issues raised was a lack of opportunity over the last 18 months for face to face engagement. In order to address this, the NDA is planning a series of seminars on plutonium over the coming year to allow access to NDA staff and provide an opportunity to ask questions. They are currently looking for a venue and date for the first seminar.
