In what some described as an attempt to screen participants, people wanting to attend information-sharing sessions were first required to register and provide the company with their personal details. The requirement has now been removed following complaints from the community.
“We asked for names and contact details when people registered so we could follow up with project information, but we appreciate that some people felt uncomfortable providing this information, so we’ve dropped the requirement to register attendance. People can now just turn up at any of the sessions.”—Paul Taylor, SIRRL.
