Britain's business bosses rail against 'risk-averse' public sector

UKauthorITy - Poor project management and an inability to share best practice hampers the potential of information technology to transform public services, says business group.

The CBI has called on the government to harness the potential of information technology to transform public services, in its report System Reset: Transforming public services through IT.

The report claims that the public sector is failing to make effective use of technology, which could make accessing public services easier for the public and businesses, while saving taxpayers' money.
