The Statistics and Law working group of the Royal Statistical Society was
set up in 2005 following a series of high-profile criminal cases involving
sudden unexpected deaths in infancy. Over the last few years, the group has
written a series of four reports on ‘Communicating and Interpreting
Statistical Evidence in the Administration of Criminal Justice’, published
by the Royal Statistical Society with the support of the Nuffield
Foundation. Following the publication of these reports, the group was wound
up and recreated as a Section of the Society. This is the inaugural meeting
of the Section. The three main authors of the reports will present their
ideas for the future activities of the Section and look for a lively
discussion on the role of statistics in the law.

The reports are available as pdf files from www.rss.org.uk/statsandlaw

Tea and coffee will be available before the seminar.
