It is the safest and most secure means of managing higher activity waste over the long-term. No decisions have been made on where a GDF could be sited. The Government wants to work in partnership with communities who are interested in finding our more about what GDF could mean for their area. The Government is currently considering how to best to work with potential communities. We are considering issues like who could represent a community, how we could test public support and what community investment might be appropriate. As part of this work, we would like to engage with the public to understand their views on these issues. We want to hear what people have to say in two different locations and across different demographic groups. The intention is to use the panel to recruit for two rounds of public dialogue workshops in February and March 2016. 25 people will be recruited in each location to attend the two workshops, so the same group of people will be attending both workshops in each location Rationale: We are looking to understand a wide range of views from people who typically do not engage with Government on these issues. Our exclusion criteria are designed to give us a group of people who are not coming to the meeting with strong pre-determined views, either in favour, or against, nuclear related issues. Key: We must create a recruitment process that does not end up with a final group that is overly skewed by core sociological variables (gender, ethnicity, age, socio-economic group).
