'It got to the stage where we'd agree to something one month and come back to the next meeting and think, now why on earth have we done that? why was that there? who asked for it? and have it removed only to realise yes there was a perfectly good reason for it in the first place. So the whole thing became quite long drawn out, more so I think than GIS originally intended. Whether that was because there was such a strange assortment of people involved in the initial workshops all working towards their own individual goals if you like as to what they wanted the new system to achieve ... particularly as you have experts in various classes, you need quite a selection of people involved to get through..to put the technical input into what was going on. ...X040 page 002.03b (tape 01.2.04b) Lucy Notes/Tape 09/06/94Maybe one of the problems was that it did drag on for such a long time is that different people were involved so the same people would not attend from one meeting to the next. Maybe people would ask for something to be included and then at the next meeting along it would be a case of why did they want that, oh well they're not here we won't worry about it now. Which was frustrating, I think GIS found it frustrating as well, they wanted to get on and actually design a system but it kept changing.'
