The report presented at this launch is the result of a year long collaboration between the OII and the department for Communities and Local Government (CLG). It presents findings based on the analyses of OxIS, Ofcom and Office of National Statistics (ONS) databases as regards the links between social and digital inclusion. In addition, the report offers policy recommendations and describes ways in which digital inclusion research can be improved. This report will inform the Minister of Digital Inclusion's Digital Inclusion Action Plan which was published in October 2008.
