Improve government governance

Comments on Natasha Stott Despoja “Legislate to keep the bastards honest”, 24/05/2010, http://www.businessspectator.com.au/bs.nsf/Article/Abbott-Rudd-Gillard-ETS-Democrats-pd20100524-5QS35?OpenDocument&src=sph

It is not just false advertisement, but mismanagement of the budget and policy deliveries, such as the home insulation program, the BER, the NBN, the Indigenous housing program, and etc, which all need more effective control with due punishments.

Please note those are in billions and billions, more than the HIH collapse.

Why should the taxpayers tolerate such irresponsibility and malpractice?

There are fundamental problems with the current governance of government.

Of course, there should be a balance, so governments are not unduly constrained to do a proper job.

But accountability in addition to elections must be a significant part to improve government governance.
