Rapid Response Team
The Policy & Technical Rapid Response Team is a virtual group that are contacted by email to provide a resource for the UK-GBC executive, to enable enquiries of a policy and technical nature to be answered quickly and helpfully. Enquiries of this type typically come to the executive from UK-GBC members, journalists, political parties and others, about once or twice a week. The response team is contacted by the UK-GBC executive, on email, and asked to respond within an appropriate timeframe. If a range of opinions are returned, this diversity is reflected in the response given by the UK-GBC executive. The membership of the Rapid Response Team is refreshed every 6 months to give a wide variety of members the chance to contribute to the team.
