Interesting and thought-provoking post about government correspondence. What if people were asked to score their satisfaction with the response (plus an open field for comments), and that were used as a quality measure?

So I'm pretty excited by the recognition that traditional consultation doesn't cut it any more, in the Rewiring the State Cabinet Statement. 1/3 www.gov.uk/government/p...

Exhibit A: British Gas explains how it's the customers' fault that they're cutting 1,300 call centre staff - people just prefer chat bots! Exhibit B: Trustpilot summary of reviews of British Gas customer service: frustration of being forced into online channels and unable to speak to a person.

Agree with this. The (then) Science and Technology Committee existed prior to DSIT and should continue after it, including scrutiny of public sector adoption of digital, data and AI, the responsibility for which is now distributed across departments. committees.parliament.uk/committee/13...

Now seeing evidence that the zero sense move (of GDS to DDCMS) is what's happening. Which makes zero sense. If you're going to hold back service transformation through a MOG change, the end result of that change has to be worth the disruption.

I have to assume that GDS will be moving back to Cabinet Office (because the alternative move to DDCMS makes zero sense). I guess we'll know when we see the relevant junior ministerial appointments – who will have Digital Government in their remit and in which department?

Complete non-story if you actually go and read it. The fact Palantir didn't get contracted by Greater Manchester while Burnham was mayor is used as evidence he'll cancel the FDP contract. /1
