The BOM Website Debacle

Article by Mark Neugebauer

It is a symptom of a deeper, structural problem in Australian governance—one that neither major party seems willing to confront, because both are complicit in creating and maintaining it. For Australians for Better Government (ABG), the BOM saga is precisely the sort of failure that exposes why our country needs a more transparent, accountable and modern system of executive leadership.
