As we see more job loses in my beloved wee province one wonders
Where have we gone wrong ?
Well in my opinion we have become so risk averse that we wont tell anyone one the time in case they sue us at a later date
Government employs thousands off a…
They are going to use the Barnett consequncails earmarked fro pacific funding streams like renewable energy to prop us up It is interesting to see Intertrade is one off the organisatins that the Republics Government wants to stop funding
Is it too much to ask that everyone has a say in the recovery off our wee country .
Where is the innovation needed to move us forward ?
Where is the support for the service models designed by those whom want to make a difference ?
Where is the new…
hello Joanne just a few words to say well done as i totally agree where non contentious building plans especially off a business nature are submitted there should always have been a fast track approach to facilitate the completion off much needed bu…
Great document Only thing that will cause it to waver is the regressive taxation to pay for it to be implemented
No one is going to agree to extra taxation and then hand the ideas contained within the paper to government to spend years sitting talki…
Okay Basil lets get started
Arrange a meetign till we talk about providing 25 %more health care services for 40% less
In one simple word yes however i will elaborate For too long now we see our polititions when there is an election Once every four years public consultation is one way however the way it is operated at this time is nothing more than tokenism Committe…
Sorry Alan this is your post Hwever the continuel fault line between the public and provate sector is something that needs to be looked at in great detail the social economy has the ability to heal such a fault line and it is long over due that this…
Hi Joanne i have said for years that the social economy linking very closely with the S.M. A. is the way forward and able to react quickly One issue however needs to be dealt with with only a few exceptions we have no social economy business,s in N.…
Well done to the media i say Self regulation in no regulation In the early seventies when the health trusts were here in NI were allowed to set their own remunaration and conditions there was also a feeding frenzy off course this was ignored by dire…
Why do we allow such incompitint fools to rule us and to dictate what we do when we do it .
It would be interesting( if off course they had the time and energy to as they are trying to cope with a credit crunch and keep their business afloat ) To se…
So why does she not get on with it there are many forms that the housing could take not just the two up two down hasilty thrown together type which has been the staple off the last thirty years innovative ways off providing the houses and innovative…
Oh yes as they are not able to sneeze without Londons permission they have to be seen to be doing something Hence the call for another stratagy group
innovation in a credit crunch
I am writing this to encourage the use off innovative thinking through out the whole community and hope that you are willing to look at innovation that introduced properly will not cost the S.M.A. or indeed the larger company a fortune
Lets look at what is not happing
Very few C.H.P. units providing heat power and cooling within the province
Very flittle innovative tendering allowing the S.M.A. and the community business to unite to provide gov services
No waste minimsation clubs (that i know off ) to help business reduce the waste going to landfill (reducing costs paid to councils )
Very few energy efficent homes being build
No electric vehicle stratagy within our province
All these inexpensive ideas have been thouragly researched by myself so if you want details then log in and talk to me

Doing things differently Is this the way forward
As we see more job loses in my beloved wee province one wonders
Where have we gone wrong ?
Well in my opinion we have become so risk averse that we wont tell anyone one the time in case they sue us at a later date
Government employs thousands off advisors and staff
But what advise is given ?
Benefits the radical solution
As someone whom receives benefits due to multiple disabilities
Why am i the only one that has no say in reform ?
£48 million on completely useless work schemes is £48… Continue

Everyone must have a say
Is it too much to ask that everyone has a say in the recovery off our wee country .
Where is the innovation needed to move us forward ?
Where is the support for the service models designed by those whom want to make a difference ?
Where is the new model off social security that would allow us to be part off the system not laying at home getting a handout every week ?
I thought long and hard about posting this as i am sick and tired off others telling me what i need and how they will give it t… Continue

Is training the answer to all the provinces woes
Sadly the answer for me anyway is no
£45 Million is spent on training per year in ni this will be increased to £48 million by 2011 sadly the quality and the level off training is so low that their is no chance of actually getting a job and is only used to reduce the numbers claiming benifits it also fails them in that they are returned to the benifit after the training ends
So why are we spending such a large amount off money on such poor training ?
Have the I.O.D ever been asked what training… Continue

Is social economy the way forward
As more and more people are losing their jobs is the setting up off a social economy business the way forward
if support was available and the people who have lost their jobs encouraged to set up a business within the sector they have worked in in some case for thirty years it would i belive take the edge off the credit crunch plus it would stop the humiliation felt by many forced through no fault off their own to are forced to join the dole queue
Benifits
Funding will allow people to contribu… Continue
