Abstract
The reports on ‘errors’ in the IPCC assessment reports on climate change caused a media storm in the winter of 2009–10. At the time Maarten Hajer was, as he still is, Director of Planbureau voor de Leefomgeving, the Netherlands Environmental Assessment Agency, which was responsible for one of the mistakes. The PBL was subsequently asked by the Dutch parliament to investigate the likelihood of there being more mistakes in the IPCC reports. In this article he reflects on the uses of deliberative theories of governance in handling this crisis in the authority of science.
