Yeah, looks like UK Labour doesn't intend to carry forward the previous Government's plan for an integrated platform for transparency data questions-statements.parliament.uk/written-ques...

We are left to the mercy of GOV​.UK's search function.

UK House of Commons written question UIN 37428, tabled on 11 March 2025 and answered on 18 March 2025: Charlie Dewhirst Conservative, Bridlington and The Wolds Commons To ask the Minister for the Cabinet Office, what progress he has made on the new integrated transparency platform. Answer Ms Abena Oppong-Asare Labour, Erith and Thamesmead Commons This Government is fully committed to transparency and ensuring information published is as useful as possible. For example, the Government introduced a central register of ministers’ gifts and hospitality on a monthly basis. These registers are published by the Cabinet Office and are available at: https://www.gov.uk/government/collections/register-of-ministers-gifts-and-hospitality#:~:text=The%20Register%20details%20the%20gifts,available%20on%20departmental%20web%20pages(opens in a new tab).

So this is a good time for #Governments in #Canada to start putting some distance between big, proprietary, American companies like Microsoft, IBM and Adobe, and start seriously shifting #GovTech to support #SmallBusiness & #OpenSource

We can now follow the example of many European countries!

Alarming: The admin's DOGE initiative is gutting vital gov tech (USDS/18F) for risky hype, firing experts. This reckless approach threatens critical services like Social Security & our data privacy. Not progress, it's dangerous. #GovTech #CivicTech #DataSecurity

Ramp is making a bold move to become a vendor for the U.S. government's $700B+ SmartPay program — all because of a single tweet from DOGE (Department of Government Efficiency). From startup to public sector disruptor? This could be one of the most ambitious gov-tech pivots yet.
