I'm more interested in how this would be enforced A Deathwatch Guard Send a noteboard - 27/01/2012 02:39:15 AM
And what would happen to those that fail to comply. Either way, I don't see it as being any more effective than a recommendation. The people that are interested in reading will look at it with interest and read what they want from there, and the people not into reading will go on ignoring literature. Not to mention that I'd be worried about a list of books being given by the government anyway. Not the sort of people I would trust to choose the best quality books.
