  • Cabinet Office Consultation on 'Better Use of Data in Government
    Cabinet Office consultation on ‘Better use of data in government’ Response from the CLOSER Consortium CLOSER (Cohorts and Longitudinal Studies Enhancement Resources) is funded by the Economic and Social Research Council (ESRC) and Medical Research Council (MRC) to maximise the use, value and impact of the UK’s longitudinal studies. The network brings together eight leading longitudinal studies, the British Library and the UK Data Archive. CLOSER’s response to the consultation predominantly reflects our interest in being able to link individual administrative records to longitudinal survey data collected from that same individual. The linking of these two forms of data offers potential that exceeds the sum of the two approaches in isolation. While administrative records can provide enviable coverage and frequency, they rarely provide the richness and depth that comes from survey data collected to tackle specific research questions; conversely, survey data collection can be costly and challenging to administer, leading to missing data and possible biases which can be overcome by using administrative records to fill in the missing information. Consequently, combining the two can yield considerable benefits. For example, recent analysis of the National Pupil Database (NPD) and Higher Education Statistics Agency (HESA) found higher participation rates in higher education among a range of groups including ethnic-minorities.1 However, those records could not help explain these differences in participation; exploring this required linking individual

  • The Role of the Private Secretary by Edward Bowles, a Sometime Private Secretary
    The Role Of The Private Secretary by Edward Bowles, a sometime Private Secretary Lord Annan (no relative of the former UN Secretary General) tried to explain the UK system of Government to a befuddled American audience, whose interest had been whipped up by Peter Wright’s book, Spycatcher’. He said: “The mandarins are the permanent secretaries who are at the head of each Ministry. The spies are the young civil servants who are the private secretaries of Ministers. Every meeting a Minister has is attended by his private secretary, who logs it; every conversation he makes on the phone is recorded; every appointment he makes in Whitehall is monitored. If you try to bend a Minister’s ear, what you say will be round the civil service in 48 hours: the only way is to catch him at dinner in the evening when his attendant nurse from the Mental Clinic, his private secretary, is no longer observing his patient. ” As descriptions go, that is not altogether unfair – except to nurses at mental clinics. An equally entertaining view, expressed by Peter Hennessy, in his truly excellent book ‘Whitehall’ (not everyone’s view of a rip-roaringbest-seller, I admit) is that the unspoken job description of a Civil Servant, and in this context a Private Secretary, is to make a Minister, ‘however ill-suited he is for high-office, or however hopeless and helpless he is once office is attained, to seem and to be that much better and more competent than he actually is’. That, of course, is really very unfair to Ministers! The reason that I refer to these quotations is quite simply because there is no guidebook on what it is to be a Private Secretary.

  • United Nations General Assembly Special Session on Covid-19 Hon Chris Fearne, Deputy Prime Minister Malta
    United Nations General Assembly Special Session on Covid-19 Hon Chris Fearne, Deputy Prime Minister Malta Secretary General, President of the General Assembly, Excellencies, Ladies and Gentlemen These past months have been an eye opener for us all. I believe that this year will be remembered for the hard lessons learnt, which unfortunately have come at a very high cost. It would be a disservice to all these lives lost and to all those who put so much effort into responding to this pandemic, if we did not use this opportunity for us to grow and to build back better. We will not be overcome by the fear of the unknown that this pandemic has brought, but rather it will serve us as a lesson in humility and for us all to learn and to discover lessons that we can use for future pandemics. The COVID pandemic has in fact put a spotlight on the resilience of our health systems. Quoting the UN Secretary General “we are only as strong as the weakest of our health systems.” For this reason, at the onset of the pandemic, Malta sought to quickly organise its COVID pandemic public health response team and to bolster its healthcare system. This was done in parallel with efforts to reinforce the health workforce. Malta also brought in a system of thorough surveillance, broad testing across the board including screening, as well as a symptom checker app to enable citizens to be empowered in this pandemic. Malta has maintained, in fact, one of the highest testing rates globally; and today the positivity rate for COVID-19 remains at a low 4%, even though we are in a strong and heftier second wave of the Coronavirus.

  • From Lord Berkeley 07710 431542, [email protected] Simon Case Esq CVO Cabinet Secretary Cabinet Office, SW1
    From Lord Berkeley 07710 431542, [email protected] www.tonyberkeley.co.uk Simon Case Esq CVO Cabinet Secretary Cabinet Office, SW1 12 August 2021 Dear Simon, HS2 – Ministers misleading Parliament. I wrote to you on 9th July requesting you to investigate allegations that ministers have failed to comply with the Ministerial Code by misleading parliament. I have not had the courtesy of any substantive response from you and it appears from a letter received from Bernadette Kelly, Permanent Secretary at the Department for Transport, dated 4th August 2021 that you requested her to respond on your behalf. I find her response wholly unacceptable; clearly she is seeking to defend her ministers’ and her department’s reputation. However, I repeat my request to have a response from you as Cabinet Secretary. In this situation, I sought the advice of one of your permanent secretary predecessors (and a former private secretary to two prime ministers}, Sir Tim Lankester KCB, who is perhaps best known for his work in upholding the integrity and independence of the civil service against overbearing ministerial interests in linking overseas aid to arms sales. Sir Tim comments to me in relation to HS2: ‘Dear Tony, Like you, I think the continuing deception over the costs of HS2 is an absolute disgrace. We had come to expect this from ministers, trying to protect their own backs and trying to protect the project's credi- bility against mounting evidence that it is a gigantic waste of the nation's scarce resources. But what I find utterly horrible, and in some ways even worse, is the Permanent Secretary's complicity in this de- ception.

  • Cabinet Secretary for Culture and External Affairs.Dot
    Rt Hon Michael Gove MP Chancellor of the Duchy of Lancaster Cabinet Office 70 Whitehall London SW1A 2AS __ 17 June 2020 Dear Michael In our joint statement of 14 June, which expressed disappointment in your decision not to request an extension to transition before we had an opportunity to discuss this crucial matter ahead of the high level political stocktake, we said that we would write to you on the subject of ‘rebooting’ the process of engagement between the UK and Devolved Governments on the EU-UK negotiations. This letter sets out our thinking on this important subject. We have, in the meantime, received your letter of 14 June responding to our statement. As you acknowledged, we have different views on the way forward and our governments are not going to agree on the core fundamental positions with regard to the EU-UK future relationship. To our mind, this is all the more reason for us to re-double our efforts to work together for the benefit of business and communities in all parts of the United Kingdom, particularly as the option of an extension will no longer be open to the UK after the end of this month. It was because of the immutability of that deadline within the Withdrawal Agreement that we were so disappointed that the final decision was taken in advance of the meeting. While we have had the opportunity to register our views on this issue on several occasions, we would point out the difference between the quantity of meetings and other contacts between our administrations, and the quality of the engagement.
