Vísindanefnd breska þingsins hefur komist að þeirri niðurstöðu að Phil Jones, sem er einn af þeim sem var miðpunktur hins svokallað climategatemáls, hafi ekki falsað niðurstöður. Í þessu máli fóru efasemdarmenn hamförum með upphrópanir og mistúlkanir varðandi efni tölvupóstanna. Sjá t.d. í eftirfarandi færslu Blogg: Að stela bíl og nota fyrir sjónvarp . En nú er komin skýrsla frá bresku vísindanefndinni sem hefur haft rannsókn málsins í sínum höndum. Í fréttatilkynningu kom m.a. eftirfarandi fram:
The focus on Professor Jones and CRU has been largely misplaced. On the accusations relating to Professor Jones’s refusal to share raw data and computer codes, the Committee considers that his actions were in line with common practice in the climate science community but that those practices need to change.
On the much cited phrases in the leaked e-mails—”trick” and “hiding the decline”—the Committee considers that they were colloquial terms used in private e-mails and the balance of evidence is that they were not part of a systematic attempt to mislead.
Insofar as the Committee was able to consider accusations of dishonesty against CRU, the Committee considers that there is no case to answer.
