Spreading Jam on Wounds

"I've got no doubt that right across the country we're spending far too much on bureaucracy and administration and we need to make sure more of it gets to the pointy end," The HON IAN CAMPBELL said yestreday

While I welcome the focus on the pointy end, the conservatives still give the dollar to the wrong accountability groups simply because they prefer simplicity. They like to focus on the sweets rather than the substance . Our leaders still get lulled into a sense of false comfort by the mere mention of the word "enterprise" , unaware of the high risk of isolation rather than integration-
The left hand does not knowesth what the right handeth doeth .The nurse and the CEO talk different languages. One offers jam, the other talks about uneccesary jagged edges, and how to avoid them .
Government is not business and true accountability ( Minister to Department) is still the key to sore prevention,stable and sustainable and more satisfying staffing .
All the other expensive rubbish their revived quango theology has created in the last couple of decsdes will keep coming back to bite them big time- the waste is the current governments creation ---not neccesarily the goodwill and volunteer groups-groups who one presumes still get little money for propaganda purposes.

How do those of you in health care feel about quangos ,and the plethora of simple bookeeper and accountancy priests that still rule with dubious honor ? se also govtisnotbusiness
