WRITTEN ON June 25th, 2007 BY Sam Smith AND STORED IN Power of Information
“The Government” has responded to Ed and Tom’s “Power of
Information” review. While accepting most of the (with additional work required on 3 of them), they do note
that:
The Government believes that the Reviewers could have painted a more positive picture of the
Government’s progress to date. (link)
While the Government is doing good work, that doesn’t mean that there’s not significant scope for improvement across the huge swathes of government. acceptance of most of the recommendations seems to suggest they get that, and now we have to hope that they will be implemented as well as accepted.

It’s just a wee bit odd that one of the arguments given to support the claim that the reviewers could have painted a more positive picture, is “the Review itself cites examples of good practice in the public sector” Now is it just me, or… ?
As of today we are due to get more subatance and less spin.
Yeah I agree, This reads as if it was written by experts who know something about the subject. Surely it should have conformed to normal standards and been written by clueless apologist spin-doctors?
