Welcome and introduces himself.
The purpose of today's session is to raise awareness of the emerging legal issues surrounding ICTs.
ICTs are Information and Communication Technologies - the modern/European name for IT.
We hope to do this through a discussion session with you (the audience).
However, before that we have a couple of brief presentations to set the scene, and raise a few of the issues that may concern you.
Firstly, Andrew Baldwin will briefly describe the eLEGAL project, a European funded research project led by Loughborough University.
Then, Sue Langley will cover the work of CITE in this area, including the recently formed ‘Legal and Security Issues Project Group’.
