This is a BBC story about how e-government is being deployed in Scotland. Take a look at it. There is much in the model that ought to work equally well for Southern Village. Above all, it means that more of the business of the Scottish Parliament or the various bodies governing parts of our lives here in Southern Village are in public view. Sunshine on process and substance in both places is a very good thing.
