>> Went to a number of "Task and Finish" meetings which became anything but...
That's exactly what the post meeting wash up was for.
There would be a discussion in main meeting about a particular subject, let's take changes to the rules governing the appeal mechanism for social security decisions. Members would contribute and identify concerns, changes they would like to see etc. Conclusion would be that staff member with policy lead for DWP would write to Minister covering points discussed.
Filleting out the points to be covered and compositing where comments overlapped was a 'wash up' task as was deciding deadlines for letter being sent.
Sometimes, as alluded above, we'd find ourselves asking 'did you understand X's' point?
We'd all check our notes or if necessary listen to the audio record.
Could we have done it another way? Yes. But if the process is proven to work why faff with it?
