A while ago (October 12th) I noted that things in the USA had a chance to progress quite dramatically if the CIO that they were talking about appointing was given the authority and the money to get things done. Well, the House has passed the first stage of the bill to set that up. $50 million for each of the next 2 years looks in the bag – not a bad pot for a central organisation. Now, if along with that comes authority and the ability to stop others spending money where they shouln’t, then the ante is upped for sure.
USA ups the ante again?
