Abstract
  • This paper focuses on the role of natural resources information in Oregon legislative policy-making, based on the two legislative case studies from the 1991 Legislative Session, surveys conducted of state natural resource agency legislative liaisons, and a review of current literature addressing policy-making and the role of science in policy-making. The paper is limited in scope to legislative policy-making, which is only one step in the lengthy policy-making process, and because of its political nature, probably the least influenced by technical natural resources information. Despite this built-in limitation, it is important for people involved in both natural resource information and natural resource policy-making to be aware of the role research information plays in the legislative process. It is my hope that this knowledge may encourage more non-policy-makers to get involved in the legislative process, and to recognize the importance of disseminating natural resources information to policy-makers.
