Story: Government: we've learned from our IT mistakes

Why is this Government so determined to create UK wide networks of information on such large scales and high costs? Surely, it is far more cost effective and better VFM to set local networks up first, then regional networks and finally intergrating the networks to creat a national one. At least that way, any bugs will be created and troubleshooted at local levels, at far less cost. By the time a national database is created, all bugs should be fixed and all IT equipment should be running smoothly. Finally, instead of "giving" contracts to US companies, in particular, the Government should put contracts to tender, for UK businesses only. For this advice, I should charge the Government at least £5million but I am generous and the government can have it for free LOL
