George Osborne, the Chancellor of the Exchequer, announced plans on 24 May for a “significant reduction” in the UK’s 900 quangos or \’arms length bodies\’, which he promiesd would save £500million.
However in a report published on Thursday, the Institute for Government urged ministers to “avoid repeating history” and engage in this “traditional post-election cull” of quangos.
So, think tank set up and funded by Minister (David Sainsbury) in previous government says current government might be doing something silly in reversing actions of previous government.
Well I never, there\’s a surprise now.
