As an ex bureaucrat, in the health/tech area but a bureaucrat nevertheless...

Most folks are ignorant of the reason for #bureaucracy

Part of it is the neo-liberals nonsense whining about #redtape and making things #efficient

Part of it, unless you have tasted the sausage AND seen the sausage making machine from the inside, you do not appreciate the need for the sausage making machine.

So here is my off the top of my head list of why bureaucracy is NECESSARY.

1. The primary function of bureaucracy is to keep records. Bureaucracy started back in Sumer, when the number of agricultural products and names against them exceeded this one person can keep in their heads. They used clay tablets.
But it still holds true if you use a database.

2. You need a cadre of personnel who KNOW how to use the clay tablets.
Sure they can't sheer a sheep or dig an irrigation channel or carry a spear.
Those folks are really handy to have around and you can recruit some of your supervisors from that pool because they have the right mindset.

3. The least appreciated part of the reason for Bureaucracy is...to act as a handbrake. You do NOT want the arsehole at the top, who has no idea how to make shit happen have his every whim executed instantly. The bigger the change, the longer it should take.
Or shit will break.

As to the expedition of the drones, you need the form AH-2245/d.

If there is not one, you need to create one. That's how things work.
If there is no form like that, some arsehole who does not appreciate how bureaucracy works tried to balls-to-the-wall that process.

We have a system and it works.

The Tories’ decision to get rid of planning “red tape” in order to steam ahead with ‘Free Schools’ is coming back to haunt them. Yet another Gove initiative gone sour.

Using dirt cheap and under-surveyed old office blocks with RAAC and asbestos etc as “new” schools is not such a good idea after all. You should always look at what’s under the bonnet of an old banger.

#Ontario voices

"The Conservatives in Ontario have been tweeting that they are proud of removing red tape and regulations. Turns out red tape holds buildings together. Red tape is safety. Red tape is inspectors making sure developers aren't cutting corners. Red tape is our best friend. Safe or sorry. I pick safe."

CP24Luxury Welland condo collapse captured on videoBy Abby O'Brien

A 226-unit, five-storey luxury condo building being constructed in #Welland, Ont., partially collapsed on Saturday.
No one was in the building at the time, but the collapse could be heard blocks away. Ministry of Labour is 'on it', but has anyone contacted Doug Ford's Ministry of Red Tape yet? Have MPP's Gill & Oosterhoff gone too far "modernizing legislation, regulations, and policies that can be burdensome, inefficient, and inflexible." 🤔

@QasimRashid Andrew Carnegie was a prize b*stard, but his #philanthropy built a lot of libraries in towns that might otherwise not have them. Government programs get so wrapped up in #redtape that the majority of the money goes to meeting pointless requirements about hiring, etc., or lining politicians’ pockets, that most of the money never gets where it’s supposed to.
