PBOWatch: A little light weekend reading for parliamentarians

Not quite as efficient as an RSS feed, but it keeps ITQ from having to remember to check the website every few days to make sure she doesn’t miss out on any shiny newly released analysis:

From: LOP Office of the Parliamentary Budget Officer/Bureau du directeur parlementaire du budget BDP
Subject: PBO to Release Pre-budget Briefing Note Wednesday, January 21 / Le DPB publiera une fiche de breffage prébudgétaire le mercredi 21 janvier
Sent: Jan 20, 2009 3:44 PM

For your information, before noon tomorrow the Parliamentary Budget Officer (PBO), Kevin Page, will be posting a pre-budget briefing note prepared by his office for parliamentarians and Canadians. You will receive an email once the document has been posted.

Thank you,

Office of the Parliamentary Budget Officer

Can anyone be added to the distribution list for the PBO?

ITQ & Andrew,

I imagine that they are working to get that RSS feed operational ASAP, but would think that until it is up and running you could e-mail their general in-box: pbo-dpb@parl.gc.ca and ask to be put on the distribution list – but that’s just a guess.

ITQ will continue to dream of the day when there will be a full RSS feed for all of parl.gc.ca, but thanks for the tip, Other Guy!
