The policies and documents published on this site have been formatted to a policy template. To manage security and authenticity, a digital security certificate has been attached to the template. The certificate has been renewed for 2007. When you open a document for the first time this year, a dialogue box will appear. Tick the box "Always trust macros from this source" and click on "Enable Macros", and the document will open. Policy authors writing a new policy document will also need to do this the first time the template is opened.
