APPENDIX C
UNIVERSITY OF EAST ANGLIA DID NOT CHANGE
THE BRIEF OF THE OXBURGH PANEL
11 Jul 2010
Following a broadcast on the Today Programme
on BBC Radio 4 on 7 July 2010, and text on Roger Harrabin's blogsite
on the BBC webpages, the following has been sent to Mr Harrabin
by Lord Oxburgh and Professor Trevor Davies.
"The University asked the Panel chaired
by Lord Oxburgh to consider whether "data had been dishonestly
selected, manipulated and/or presented to arrive at pre-determined
conclusions that were not compatible with a fair interpretation
of the original data". It is not true that Professor Davies
subsequently asked Lord Oxburgh, as you claim, to adopt a "narrower
... brief" of any kind. We shall be grateful if you would
correct the wrong impression which has been given".
