I think that this story with Winston Peters and the over-payments is huge. I don't care about whether he was over-paid or not, but what I do care about is that our government agencies can't be trusted with our private data.
What is going on? Are there no data access protocols applied and is access to private data neither tracked nor restricted?
I'm really shocked at how lax our government's IT standards are. Does anyone working with govenment agencies know why this is so?
