This morning is when EDDC are making another attempt to switch over to their new and improved (??) web site.

We should expect several things:

1. Links to documents on the old site will now be broken;

2. Links to documents on the new site before the switch over may now be broken;

3. A whole lot of information will no longer be available online – even relatively recent items (like minutes from over 12 months ago) and no longer available online – you will have to go cap in hand to (un-)democratic services to get hold of them.

Which is just what democracy needs in the run up to an election – an absence of the information needed to hold the current administration to account.

There was a warning on the old web site for a few days that it would be down from 10am, but they appear to have ignored that and started early.
