Article: [senit] AAC review?

This is an email fro Abigail Lock obout the review.? I have sent a briefling paper on the work that CENMAC does to my local MP.? YOu can only contact your own MP (that is my understanding) 
You can see the email of the John Bercow's researcher below.

Trish

EAIL FROM ABIGAIL LOCK, SCOPE
The other thing to note is that there will be a Westminster Hall debate on 9th October .? This has been arranged by John Bercow MP.? Scope will be sending briefings and are happy to include the names of other organisations on them as this can have more impact.? If there are specific points which you would like to? raise John's researcher can be contacted on? WARRENJ at parliament.uk? I would suggest you write no more than two sides.? Use facts and lots of examples.? However more effective than this will be if you can encourage your networks to write to their own individuals MPs asking them to attend the debate and telling them about there situation.?? I am happy for my name to be given out as a contact to MPs if they require more information.??? You want to give your MP as much notice as possible - I would suggest you start writing now!

you are correct.. we do not know how he will proceed... could some body 
(agency/charity) make representations so that there is some transparency?

Thank you, Will. I never knew that - must put in my little book of 'useful
things to know'. 
I also tried Simon's URL - that worked too.
Interesting article but it doesn't tell us how he proposes to do this review
and how we can contact him etc....

Hi there Ann
- Seeing your name has just reminded me of something I need to be doing(!)
Anyway for the record always put URL's in angle brackets; that way 
nothing will break the url
