Blackett addressed the first meeting of the Group (25 February 1960) and spoke on the 'pre-Election Scientific Report of the Labour Party' (this Report was the set of papers prepared by senior scientist members of the Gaitskell group - see E.28).
Arrangements were made for Blackett to address a later meeting of the Group (8 February 1962) on the 'Long-term Demand for Scientific Manpower Report' but Blackett had to cancel his appearance at this meeting and it was not rescheduled.
