D‌‍‍‍‌‍‍‌‌‍‍‍‌‍‍‍‍‌‍‍escription: We have learned in class that many people and organisations, including business organisations, try to influence governmental policy on issues of material or moral interest to them. This goes under the general term ‘lobbying’. This written assignment will present students with real-life policy issues and ask them to take the part of a lobbyist seeking, by use of sound reasoning, to exert an influence on governmental decisions. For detailed description of the assignment please see the Business Submission Briefing file above. Format: You are required to prepare a 2,000-word lobbying letter on behalf of some interest group, firm or busi‌‍‍‍‌‍‍‌‌‍‍‍‌‍‍‍‍‌‍‍ness association on a policy that is of both general interest to the community and particular interest to your client. The letter will clearly outline the interests and concerns held by the business in relation to the policy issue. The central objective of the submission is to make a case as to why government should follow the advice contained in the submission. The key is to research and develop a clear argument in relation to the policy issue and to present it in a persuasive manner. More information on the research and writing of your letter will be provided in classes. Rubric: See Attached Supporting files: See attached briefing and exemplar docu‌‍‍‍‌‍‍‌‌‍‍‍‌‍‍‍‍‌‍‍ments
