Notes de l'éditeur
- Thank yous to all the attendees, to Michael for organising and to Edward for having us at Newspeak House
- The first event was at the end of last year and we changed the format for this one based on what we learned
- 4 kinds of feedback: 1) if you want to give a talk at a future event; 2) if you want to hear a talk at a future event; 3) if you have a need or a gripe about data from Parliament; and 4) feedback on the event itself on the feedback sheets
- Picture of the feedback sheets

- High level conceptual diagram of the new data service which Dan talked through
- This is a complete service, which includes the collaborative practices of the team, working in the open with users of Parliament’s data.
- This is a map of the people we’ve been talking to and working with so far
- This shows some of the detail to prove it’s not just made up

- In October 2016 we commissioned this report by the Open Data Institute https://theodi.org/blog/achieving-more-with-open-data-at-dataparliamentuk It is a useful starting point / frame for our work with users and continuing commitment to focusing on users’ needs for our data; we have made progress on this user research as a team since last year and will be publishing findings in due course
- Dan said something about how he thought democracy was important. Also wanting to avoid any implicit ‘Parliament + Data = Democracy’ oversimplification, and recognising that there were many people more expert on democracy in the room.
- This image of the Canadian rapper and media personality Drake was used to illustrate Dan’s career (such as it is). Like Drake, Dan ‘started from the bottom’ at Parliament https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RubBzkZzpUA and the image is of Drake in the video to ‘Hotline Bling’ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uxpDa-c-4Mc referencing the fact that Dan’s first role in Parliament was in the Telecoms team.
- ‘Government’ in quotes because let’s accept people don’t recognise the difference between Parliament and Government. Dan’s point was that he had spent a long time in this environment, it’s been difficult in the past 12 months in particular
- This is what Twitter can feel like if you work in Government right now
- This is paraphrased from the ODI report - recognising that by focusing on producing the best, authoritative raw materials from Parliament we can facilitate others to work effectively in more ‘political’ spaces
- This is what the Data and Search team are trying to do
