TellThemWhatYouThink doesn't work very well anymore

This site was set up in 2008, to help people find Government consultations more easily, and to show that it could be done: quickly and easily. The site has never been funded as such, and has relied on volunteers for maintenance and support. It hasn't had much maintenance recently and this shows: some consultations can't be found and some functions don't work as they should. We are currently seeking funding for a new version of TellThemWhatYouThink.

In the meantime, you can search a limited number of departments for open consultations at the Directgov Consultation Finder.

On 26 September, Ed Balls (Secretary of State for Children, Schools and Families) announced that the Government would establish an independent regulator of qualifications and tests in England. “Confidence in Standards: Regulating and developing qualifications and assessment” sets out the detail of these proposals. The Office of the Qualifications and Examinations Regulator will be the guardian of standards across the tests and qualifications systems, building on the regulatory work of the Qualifications and Curriculum Authority. The QCA will develop into a development agency for curriculum, assessment and qualifications. This consultation will run until 10 March 2008.
