Story: HMRC data not filtered due to cost

Cracked it in one - outsourcing!

The giveaway is that the data had "already been extracted by EDS".
If the service had been inhouse the data would have been generated simply by amending the database parameters but thanks to the joys of outsourcing which saves lots of money, a new run would have needed a new project set up involving estimating, quoting and paying for activities outside the contract.
No wonder the government is also looking at ways they can justify offshoring the data as well all to save us money. I am glad they have my interests at heart!
Our local garage recently had a cloning scandal where most af the cards used suddenly popped up in the East. The government are obviously looking at saving us money by cutting out the middle man.
