I NOTICE that you did not include the results of that Boaters' Survey that was recently organised and published by Canal & River Trust, writes T. Lang.
But it is rather obvious why, as you need only look at the disclosures by Allan Richards of how his Freedom of Information request showed that the trust did not publish the actual figures of a survey that it told was run by a company but was not!
Pinch of salt
I should imagine that others, like Victor and myself, also prefer to use a rather large pinch of salt with its results!
It really would give it a bit of belief should it use a separate company to organise surveys—then publish the actual results...and not its own.
