Here's a first stab at our 'Agenda for Change'. I used my design area as a starting point, but I've added in some of the other key elements of the proposals as well. It needs areas, numbers, costs, etc. adding, and I've probably left out some of the impacts, positive and negative. I'll circulate the original excel version so that you can add any suggestions.
