How much scrutiny is applied to government-funded tech projects? While putting the National Statistics Office's app in the background, I noticed the title "Flutter Demo" — a clear sign of unfinished work. And this isn’t an isolated case. This isn’t just a harmless oversight. It raises serious concerns about the quality of government tech projects and the lack of accountability from those responsible. Taxpayer money funds these projects, yet basic QA processes are ignored. How many more such issues are hiding in plain sight? 💬 What are your thoughts? Have you come across similar issues in government-funded software in Nepal? https://lnkd.in/gWFw4_f3 #NepalGovernment #GovTech #Accountability #QualityMatters #DigitalNepal

Some good thoughts here....
Director of Policy and Analysis, Association of Directors of Adult Social Services (ADASS)
On Wednesday the Chancellor will stand up in the Commons to deliver her first Budget speech to the house. There’s be a lot of talk over the past week or so from the Secretary of State and Minister for Care about the importance of adult social care in its own right. The question is, will the narrative be supported by concrete action? We’ve heard about working towards a national care service, a fair pay agreement for adult social care and a role for social care in the government’s 3 shifts to fix the NHS (analogue to digital, sickness to prevention and hospital to community). There were also some interesting comments from the SoS Wes Streeting on media rounds about the development of a parallel 10-year plan for adult social care to run alongside the one being developed by Sally Warren for the NHS. As ever the devil will be in the detail. We don’t yet have any idea of how and when a number of these proposals will be developed, let alone the extent to which people with lived experience or organisations such as the Association of Directors of Adult Social Services (ADASS) will be involved. At ADASS we are realistic about the financial context facing the country and the difficult decisions that this Government will need to make. However, if Government are truly committed to adult social care the forthcoming budget needs to show commitment to stabilising the sector. This is why in the short-term we have set out practical steps that Government could take in our early priorities document: https://lnkd.in/egdqYYDS We also want Government to fund evaluation work to build a stronger evidence base for social care ahead of the Spending Review. There’s so much good work that goes on every day that enables people to live the lives they want to lead, some led by councils, some by voluntary and community sector organisations and also via other means. If we are going to truly transform social care then we need the evidence to back it up. As well as more transformative steps that could be taken over 2025/26 and over the Spending Review period: https://lnkd.in/ez9TnhVB We certainly don’t have all the answers, this is why we’ve asked the Government to commit to a principle co-production that involves people with lived experience, carers and the social care workforce.

The headline behind this paywall article is Homes for Heroes: state to build rentals for frontline workers. This is 100% the right thing to do in a market context in which no such homes are affordable for key workers. I have been a supporter of this notion for ever. This is for 400 homes which is a good start: more to come I hope. But this is the right direction of travel. I don't know the details but I have always thought it possible to get the emergency service and teacher unions and their supers involved in the sector and some will already be involved in the Housing Australia Future Fund. I also note that the NSW Government is likely to purchase - hopefully cheaper because unsellable - units off the private sector as an emergency initiative. We did the same in 2010 during the Crash when the agency I helped create(I kid you not) - what was the Homes and Communities England then Homes England - became the biggest provider of homes in London for I think 2 years. Good stuff NSW, responding to changed and stubborn realities. 'When the facts change, I change my mind: what do you do?'

Imagine having an app that helps you do group susu! What actually is susujoint? Susujoint is the automation of traditional savings scheme in Ghana and other West African countries. Its a rotating savings and credit association where a group of people contribute a fixed amount of money at regular intervals, usually daily, weekly, monthly or yearly. Each member takes turns receiving the total contribution, which helps with financial support, savings, and loans. For example, lets say 10 friends form a susu group, contributing GHS10 daily. Each member would receive GHS100 (10 members x GHS10) every 10 days, which is the total contribution for that period. This way, susujoint(susu) provides an informal financial support system, fostering community and mutual aid. Note: To get onboard, you will need a one time fee of GHS2. Secondly, all current beneficiary of current funding or contribution can not fund themselves. Again, 5% swapping fee is charged on all assets swapped into wallet for withdrawal. Lastly, no fee charged for withdrawal Download from google playstore now! 👉 https://lnkd.in/ebP_BTwT
