- Move the survey to a web-push methodology
- Increase sample sizes Wales and Northern Ireland to 1,000
- Bring the social science and statistical work 'in-house' to the FSA
Risk Communications
The literature review found:
- There is extensive evidence for risk perception and some evidence exists for risk messaging, communication channels, and developing communications
- Much of the literature focuses on high-level principles of risk communication without sufficient detail
- Further research needs to be conducted on concrete actions to be taken and the appropriate level of detail for risk practitioners
