ScotLUG: Thursday 24th November 2016 - Investigatory Powers Act

[Kenny Coyle]

The next ScotLUG meeting will be on Thursday 24th of November at the usual
spot, the Electron Club in the CCA. We should be kicking around the
Electron Club around 6:45PM. We will be aiming to start this months
discussion topic at 7:30PM.

This month we will be shaking the format up a little and we are going to be
discussing the recently passed Investigatory Powers Bill:

Kindly chaired by Euan Birch of the Caledonian University Ethical Hacking
Society - we will be starting the evening with some background into the
Bill, then we will be breaking out into a set of questions where we can
examine the positive and negative aspects of this new legislation.

To kick things off, the first question will be:

   - What oversight is there for the various parts of the legislation, and
   are they sufficient

Following the session we will be adjourning to a local bar, this is likely
to be the Terrace Bar of the CCA.
