[General]
**1. CORE Project**
In last month's Ezine we announced that the Electoral Commission
had accepted the
MoJ's advice to move toward BS7666 addressing and had made a
recommendation for
implementation in Great Britain. This, along with the decision
by the Police, FireControl
and Inspire (see February 2008 Ezine) further consolidates
BS7666 as the de facto
address standard for England and Wales.
Details for the implementation and roll out of the CORE project
are still being
finalised and these will be released shortly; but those
interested in reading into
the background and looking at a summary of the Consultation
should visit [1]www.dca.gov.uk/consult/core/cp2905.htm
and/or contact [2]CORE@justice.gsi.gov.uk if you have any
questions.

**1. Change Only Updates**
The NLPG hub received over 2,600 COUs during February with
almost 70% of these being
processed automatically. Many of the errors being sent to the
hub are software
related; vendors have been made aware of these by the hub and
are working towards
resolving the issues.
