The Science and Technology Facilities Council quietly opened for business on 1 April. (Maybe it was the date that kept them quiet.) So anyone who tries to visit PPARC or CCLRC arrives at STFC.
Actually, it doesn't quite work like that CCLRC automatically redirects you. PPARC delivers you to a web site that "is being maintained as an archive resource for a transitional period".
One of the problems with web sites is that they can vanish completely. Anyone interested in the history of either organisation should grab what they can while it lasts.
There is a separate page for Press contacts .
Sadly, we could not find an RSS feed. So you will have to get on to their email lists, or monitor the appropriate web pages.

Apparently the URL they will be using mostly is scitech.ac.uk for some reason. As far as I know CCLRC, PPARC and STFC .ac.uk will always take you to that page.
Here's the CCLRC page on Christmas Eve 2005: http://web.archive.org/web/20051224014840/http://www.cclrc.ac.uk/
Other versions are available at http://web.archive.org/
That should be:
www.scitech.ac.uk
Funny that they should "squat" on that address. It puffs up their "tech" credentials beyond their true value.
