2011 Highlights Report

This report provides a short summary of DUG's activities during the year 2011.

As you’ll see, it’s been another busy and successful year, with members sharing their experience in numerous ways, supporting the ONS in its case for what proved to be a successful Census, and the government both investigating the alternatives to another traditional Census, and continuing to promote the policies of Open Data: these initiatives led to Francis Maude, Minister for the Cabinet Office, receiving this year’s DUG Award at the Royal Society in October.
