| Abstract: | The purpose of the Science, Technology and Law Program of the NRC is to examine ways in which science is used in the courtroom and the impact that legislation has on the work of scientists and engineers. Ms. Mazza provided some background information on the OMB’s charge to develop data quality guidelines for information disseminated by the Federal Government to the June 2002 CENDI meeting. She detailed some of the National Academy of Science’s and other scientific organizations’ concerns about the implementation of these guidelines in the various agencies. A series of workshops were held in 2001 and 2002 to discuss the effect of the "Shelby" Amendment on public access to research data. The National Academy of Sciences and other scientific organizations participated in the workshops. Ms. Mazza ends by briefly listing some of the key questions that remain after the workshops. These include the impact of data collected before October 2002; the impact on the work of grantees both intramural and extramural; and agency resources needed to respond to requests. |
