Mr. Sproat

The Department of National Heritage is in the process of establishing a pilot site on the world wide web which will provide information about the work of the Department and the range of activities which it and its sponsored bodies cover. At present, DNH press releases are available on the world wide web from the Central Office of Information on http://www.coi.gov.uk/coi/depts/GHE/GHE.html. The DNH web site will be updated to reflect developments and changes in the work of the Department. The range of information provided on the site will be reviewed in the course of the current pilot. The address of the Department of National Heritage world wide web site will be made available in due course and it will be accessible from the CCTA's open government server.
