Apologies for the great delay, as I have been swamped by other work on climate change, and a few parts of the CII project itself. CII Fiona Andrews has moved from CII to another organisation. Susan Divall will now be the project co-ordinator. Susan and I havd already had one useful meeting to plan in detail how we go forward. Andrew Howie at CII is supporting the project, and has already started to send out chapters for review. CII has also confirmed that there will be a printed version of the full report. They need our guidance on numbers and recipients ( see action, below). Apart from the full report, there will be a summary version with key points and recommendations, aimed at the CII faculties. I will draft that on the bass of the full report. Project timetable Clearly we have slipped, and it looks like launch will be early November. The exact format will depend on the messages we have in the report.

The reviewers' comments will come back to me via the CII, and I will then contact you individually about any necessary changes. Other matters * I will give a resume of the project on July 10th at the CII's underwriting day. * ABI are currently working with Lloyd's on a project called something like principles of climate insurance. They intend a launch on September 13. * UNFCCC is actively looking at how to involve insurance in the climate change negotiations. They are holding a workshop on June 20th in London. I am chairing a session on adaptation, and there is a session on mitigation (energy industries etc). * UN has developed a 3-week elearning course on finance and climate change, with a focus on the energy sector, from the viewpoint of insurers, banks and asset management.I habve just finished being a mentor for 2 weeks. Action 1 Who do you think the CII report should be sent to? Please be specific, in terms of numbers and organisations. 2 Please finish your draft as soon as possible, if you have not done it already! I will be in touch with you individually in the coming days, Best wishes to you all Andrew Dlugolecki Dr Clare Goodess Climatic Research Unit School of Environmental Sciences University of East Anglia Norwich NR4 7TJ UK Tel: +44 -1603 592875 Fax: +44 -1603 507784 Web: [1]http://www.cru.uea.ac.uk/ [2]http://www.cru.uea.ac.uk/~clareg/clare.htm
