POST is the UK Parliament’s in-house source of independent analysis of public policy issues related to science and technology. Its aim is to inform parliamentary debate on these issues by a variety of means:

  • Publishing POSTnotes (short briefing notes) and longer reports. Focussing upon current science and technology issues to anticipate policy implications for parliamentarians.
  • Supporting Select Committees, with informal advice, oral briefings, data analyses, background papers or follow-up research.
  • Informing both Houses on public dialogue activities in science and technology.
  • Organising discussions to stimulate debate on a wide range of topical issues, from small working groups to large lectures.
