The minutes of the previous meeting (17 December 2002) here:

state:
"The next steering board meeting would be held on 21 January at the New Connaught Rooms, 61-65 Great Queen Street, Covent Garden, London WC2B 5DA. It would be open to the public to observe."
Yet this page on the "GM Public Debate" website:

was changed at 10:39 on the morning of 20 January 2003 (just one day before the meeting) to say:
"PLEASE NOTE THAT THIS MEETING WILL NOW TAKE PLACE IN PRIVATE AND WILL NOT BE OPEN TO MEMBERS OF THE PUBLIC TO OBSERVE (THE MINUTES OF THE MEETING WILL BE PUBLISHED IN DUE COURSE)"
I wonder what the "GM Public Debate" Steering Board has to hide...?!
Hope this is of interest.
