  • Office of the Advisory Committee On
    OFFICE OF THE ADVISORY COMMITTEE ON BUSINESS APPOINTMENTS Room G/8, 1 Horse Guards Road, London, SW1A 2HQ Telephone: 020 7271 0839 Email: [email protected] Website: http://www.gov.uk/acoba Alex Chisholm Permanent Secretary and Chief Operating Officer for the Civil Service By email 14 May 2021 Dear Mr Chisholm, Thank you for your reply to my letter of 13 April 2021. I found the response helpful, particularly your confirmation that civil servants must seek permission before accepting any outside employment which might affect their work either directly or indirectly as set out in the Civil Service Management Code; and applying the principles set out in government’s Business Appointment Rules. The Cabinet Secretary, in his letter to the Public Administration and Constitutional Affairs Committee, also helpfully summarised the process around managing conflicts of interest and identified several areas of improvement. I support much of this work. However, the lack of transparency remains a significant concern here. Mr Crothers was advised that he could take up an outside role whilst he remained in office - in line with the process set out in your letter and by the Cabinet Secretary1. Yet, neither the appointment, nor the process for managing conflicts was transparent. This means there was no publicly available information to demonstrate: ● if potential conflicts were considered and if any action was taken to mitigate any potential risks to the integrity of government; nor ● why an application to ACOBA was not considered necessary. The critical question is whether the government will introduce the transparency necessary to provide assurance around this process: 1 And therefore in line with the Civil Service Management Code; and applying the principles set out in government’s Business Appointment Rules and the Civil Service Code.

  • Rough Transcript, Check Against Delivery
    1 MICHAEL GOVE MP THE ANDREW MARR SHOW 12TH JULY 2020 MICHAEL GOVE MP Minister for the Cabinet Office (Rough transcript, check against delivery) AM: Mr Gove, welcome. Should face masks be mandatory in shops in England? MG: I don’t think mandatory, no. But I would encourage people to wear face masks when they’re inside in an environment where they’re likely to be mixing with others and where the ventilation may not be as good as it might. So I think that it is basic good manners, courtesy, consideration to wear a face mask if you are, for example, in a shop. AM: But we don’t need the law to do that? MG: Well, I trust people’s good sense. Of course the government at all times does look at the emerging evidence about what the best way to control the disease is. If necessary and if tough measures are required, as we’ve seen in Leicester – obviously a very different situation – then tough measures will be taken. But on the whole my view is that it’s always better to trust to people’s common sense to give them their sense of what is wise, and I think that individuals and businesses are responding well to that lead. AM: You’re talking about borders today. Are Britain’s borders going to be ready and secure by the end of this year? MG: Yes, I think they will be. AM: Because your colleague, Liz Truss, as we know, as expressed some real worries about this. She said in her letter that she wanted assurances ‘that we’ll be able to deliver full control at ports by July 2021 and that plans are in place from January to 2 MICHAEL GOVE MP mitigate the risk of goods being circumvented from ports intercepting port controls.’ In other words, the whole thing is tight by then.

  • Elizabeth Truss Risks Causing Chaos in England's Nursery
    FORUM Volume 55, Number 3, 2013 www.wwwords.co.uk/FORUM Like an ‘Uncontrolled Toddler’ Elizabeth Truss Risks Causing Chaos in England’s Nursery Education and Child Care Sector JOHN WADSWORTH ABSTRACT This article looks at the impact of the Education and Childcare Minister on the provision of early childhood education and care in England. Policies being developed and promoted by Elizabeth Truss predate her appointment as a minister and are consistent with the radical neo-liberal agenda pursued by Secretary of State Michael Gove. The author draws on news articles and policy announcements and calls into question the misuse and abuse of international comparisons to justify changes to early years policy in England. In September 2012 a cabinet reshuffle saw Elizabeth Truss replace LibDem Sarah Teather as Parliamentary Under Secretary for Education and Childcare. Given Truss’s credentials as one of the more virulent members of the Conservative Parliamentary Party (she is a founder member of the Free Enterprise Group of Conservative MPs and co-author of ‘Britannia Unchained’ [1]), it seems likely that she was Gove’s choice for the ministerial post. Like Gove, Elizabeth Truss is a believer in the unfettered market and is committed to the removal of red tape that gets in the way of the private sector being able to maximise its profits. She also shares his ability to seek out evidence from other countries to justify policy and then either misunderstand or completely misinterpret it. Like Gove, Liz Truss has adopted a ‘scorched earth’ policy, moving rapidly to alter the face of educare in England and making sure that it will be almost impossible for any future government to have a significant role in this particular area of social policy.
