Called to Account
In a recent study of 61 hospitals, it was found that they bought 21 different types of A4 paper, 652 different kinds of surgical gloves and 1751 different cannulas. Police forces could cut the cost of their uniforms by over 30 per cent if they all bought the same one. But they disagree on how many pockets they need. Having committed to buy two new aircraft carriers, the MOD realised it didn't have the funds to buy them. The delayed delivery cost an additional £1.6 billion. We've spent £500 million on an abandoned project to centralise 999 calls, £3.5 billion on privatising the Work Programme, £700 million on implementing Universal Credit (used by 18,000 people), £20 billion on medical n...
This Time
When Publisher?s Weekly, after reviewing Margaret Johnson-Hodge?s 2002 Black Expressions Best-selling novel ?True Lies? declared: ?Audiences tired of shallow buppie antics will respond favorably to the earthy dramas she describes,? and readers enjoyed ?True Lies? so much they demanded a sequel, Margaret Johnson-Hodge had no choice but to respond with ?This Time.? When ?This Time? opens, Dajah Moore is still on her road to recovery after a heart wrenching breakup with Rick Trimmons. Determined to get beyond the whole Rick incident, her struggles grow deeper when Rick shows up at her door step, saying all the things she needed to hear from him months before. But what Rick is saying and what Dajah sees for herself are two different things. Rick says Gina is gone from his life, but as far as Dajah is concerned, Gina hasn?t gone far enough. To further complicate things, Dajah meets Jeff Gingham, a man eight years her senior, bringing his own ideas about relationships that don?t match her own. With Rick fast on her trail and Jeff moving slowly into her heart, will Dajah get it right this time?

Children Bill
The Committee's report examines the Children Bill as introduced into the Commons in July 2004 (HCB 144, ISBN 0215704479), following Lords amendments. In particular, the report focuses on the parts of the Bill relating to: the creation of the post of Children's Commissioner for England; strengthening the legal framework of co-operation between agencies delivering children's services; as well as clause 49 of the Bill on the corporal punishment of children and the restriction of the defence of 'reasonable chastisement', in light of the UK's obligations under the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child and the European Convention on Human Rights. Conclusions reached include i) support for the creation of an independent rights-based office of Children's Commissioner; and ii) that the continuing availability of the defence of reasonable chastisement is incompatible with the UK's obligations under the UN Convention and other international agreements.

In Search of Tennessee Sunshine
After nearly 30 years of marriage, she wasn't ready for the brave, new world of on-line dating...It's 2005 and 45-year-old Erica Simpson never expected her husband to die suddenly or to be looking for love on the internet. So much has changed in the decades since she 'dated' and she's having a hard time navigating it all. In her search to re-connect, she finds a cast of characters--winners, losers, and everything in between. From New York to Bermuda, to a small southern town named Pilings, she discovers a lot. But the most important thing she discovers is herself in the aftermath of losing the love of her life.
The Logic of Public–Private Partnerships
This book examines Public–Private Partnerships (PPP), and tracks the movement from early technical optimism to the reality of PPP as a phenomenon in the political economy. Today's economic turbulence sees many PPP assumptions changed: what contracts can achieve, who bears the real risks, where governments get advice and who invests. As the gap between infrastructure needs and available financing widens, governments and businesses both must seek new ways to make contemporary PPP approaches work.
The 'too Difficult' Box
HOW DO YOU SOLVE A PROBLEM LIKE? BANKING? DRUG REGULATION? NUCLEAR DISARMAMENT? PROSTITUTION? PENSIONS? It's no secret that a myriad of long-term problems facing our society are not effectively dealt with by our current system of government; indeed, many are simply set aside and disappear completely from the short-term political agenda. Why? Because they are?too difficult' to solve. From immigration to welfare reform, from climate change to media regulation, the biggest issues consistently fall foul of the adversarial short-termism that afflicts our political culture. Too often, these seeming ...
