These highly trained "units" work together quickly and effectively to the most exacting professional common standards: 0 Politicians, authorities, and regulators attempt to reconcile competing interests. The better they understand the issues, the better able they are to reconcile these interests, the better the reconciliation, the better the political process works to the benefit of all. 0 The task of each interest involved is to inform political decision-makers of the relevant issues and to persuade them to accept its judgment of the issues. To do so well, a given interest must be able to distil the nature of its issues and concerns, and communicate them appropriately. 0 The task of the FIPRA public affairs consultant is to assist a given interest to put their case appropriately and effectively to public policy makers and regulators. To do so well, a FIPRA public affairs consultant must be an expert in the political and institutional process, understand the nature of the issues and concerns of the interest he or she represents. and the time and resource constraints on political and public institutions. 0 Any political institution should welcome such activities. A good public affairs professional is a source of accurate and current information, who recognizes different points of view, and who, therefore. assists in the reconciliation of different interests. 0 To facilitate the political process, political institutions should ensure: 0 reasonable access to those representing any interest, providing the nature of the interest is identified; 0 a fair hearing for any interest, where the input is timely, relevant and courteous both to individuals and to the rules of the institution; 0 encouragement of public affairs activity, where it is based on high standards of research, analysis, presentation and a knowledge of the political process. 0 consultants must: 0 maintain the highest standards of accuracy and care in their research and knowledge provision; 0 apply the fullest expertise to their interpretations of events; 0 be ready to identify themselves by name and company when approaching any political or public institution; 1 case lblS-l l?lleG Ulle/lt?

Philosophy?Define and Win the Battle for Public Opinion Most public battles are won or lost on the basis of who de?nes the battle. This requires an understanding of the presumptions that the public brings to that battle, the potential that can be presented for the client. and the likely lines of attack from the opposition. This philosophy places a premium on the following elements: Research that tests the impact of information and arguments. believes research should be used to measure the impact of information and arguments before that information and those arguments are presented on a broad scale to the public. In short, research should be a tool not simply to tell the way things are, but to convey how the public can be moved. Messages that are clear, simple, and repetitious. More than anything else, an effective message must be free of clutter and easy to understand. It must then be delivered with numbing repetition. The power of a positive case. Negative attacks have come to dominate most political campaigns and public policy battles. One of the results of this trend has been a failure on the part of too many campaigns to make their positive case. This has repeatedly led to situations in which the best case for many clients is left out of the public debate. experience has shown that a strong and persuasive positive case is not only a threshold test for many clients to meet, but also that this positive case is frequently the best buffer against whatever attacks are presented by opponents. Discipline in executing the communications strategy. Many a communications strategy has been undermined by the refusal to stick to the basic message in an effort to case Document 155-1 l?lleCl U/le/lt? Page 19b OT 22]. Pagelunr Z4bb accommodate secondary messages. Campaigns need the discipline to stick with messages devised by solid research. where the immediate impact may not be apparent in horserace numbers. Rapid fire responses to attacks from the opposition. A campaign must determine what attacks pose real threats and then move quickly to defuse those attacks which hold the potential of reshaping the fight. lnoculating against anticipated attacks. It is critical to anticipate lines of attack before they occur, and to use the front end of a campaign to communicate information that undermines the power of the expected attack.
