The Policy Response Group (PRG)
IARS' Forum, the Policy Response Group, is a focused policy response group. The main aim of the Group is to respond to law and policy reform as it happens throughout the year. Focused meetings take place on an ad hoc basis with the purpose of debating or developing responses to changes in law and policy. Forum members are able to attend only those meetings that fall within their area of interest and, or expertise.
