The public policy group is looking for people to participate in the development of the public policy strategy.  The intent of the group is to gather a diverse, fully representative compilation of active participants in the public sector.  The group will have meetings and discussions surrounding increasing collaboration in the construction process to deliver a better service.  Ultimately, the group would like to agree on legislation that can be supported by a wide range of disciplines in the industry.  

 The Public Policy Group is looking for participants.  There is a range of participation that would be acceptable.  The group is looking for those that will take an active role to those who will watch developments and offer opinions/suggestions through the website.  The group expects individuals to come in and out of the process, based on their workload.  The Public Policy Group primarily wants to insure they have diverse input from the entire industry.
