More details

Government policy and decision-making must be based on good scientific advice and evidence. The Sewell Report has faced sustained challenges of its evidence and conclusions. These challenges have been brought by a range of professional bodies and respected individuals across society. Consequently, the report has been significantly undermined. Further, the extent to which all citizens can have confidence in the Sewell Report has been significantly undermined.
