Your department seems to be wholly
`dysfunctional’. It has been getting progressively worse ever since the early
1990’s inspite of all the public statements made by the Ministers and/or by your
department’s communications department.
The aforesaid critique applies
equally to the Regional Offices (especially the
Emails rarely get responded to in a
focused manner and phone messages are rarely returned, alas! Essentially, there
is rarely a follow-up!
As three (3) major representative
examples, kindly click on the following and study the commitments which were
never followed up to this day, alas:--
(1)
The commitment letter
(1999) from the Rt. Hon. John Hamm MD; there has been no pragmatic follow up
to it!
(2)
The Record of Decisions (1996) by
Mr. Darrell Taylor of your Division which is scanned in 2 parts (taylor96_1.jpg
and taylor96_2.jpg).
(3)
A firm
letter of commitment by the Hon. Robbie Harrison in 1994 although we had
donated him synoptic studies that we carried out especially for the honourable
minister easily worth over $50,000 on a prior written request by the same
Minister in 1993!
We definitely have to look forward
in a positive manner but we also have to learn with major broken promises in
order to judge a department’s or even a senior staff person’s professionalism,
etc.!
