The link to the paper doesn't work :( well, not without a Micro$oft login...
Do you have another link that is open?

It's weird that I can access, but I don't go anywhere near MS.

Oh, the irony. Hiding a discussion paper on digital cooperation behind a corporate login.

Graham Thu 5 Sep 2019 8:41AM

Just spent 10 minutes trying and failing to jump through the M$ hoops.

OK. I'll ask Ed if there is a more accessible link. Meanwhile here's a PDF

What sort of response are the ICA looking for?

We at Common Knowledge would be very much up for replying to this, so ask the same question as Graham.

Here's the feedback form.

So what I'm seeing here appears to be an internal consultation exercise between the ICA and its members? I am concerned that people might put time and effort into a response that is simply ruled out as ineligible. Is there a clear channel for feedback that is acceptable to ICA? (For example, is Co-operatives UK as an ICA member open to receiving feedback and collating that).

I'll check. Ed is happy to share this, but as you say @graham it could be that feedback does need to channel thru an ICA member -watch this space.
