Perhaps we could draw up a briefing document which deals with each of the points in the government's response and send this to MPs (all, some?). This is quite a passive method as we have no means of making them read it. Ideally people might visit their MPs beforehand, armed with the document. As Colin suggests, MPs could be encouraged to ask questions of the government. What do other people think? Any other ideas of how we can make use of this debate?
