Ministers passing too many 'bad' laws, say ex mandarins‏

Very interesting, in a boring sort of way. Who cares about detailed and minute constitutional reform? Well, me to some extent. I'd be very interested to see someone take this report on and run with it.
I'm often interested in how much power politicians have, and how much scope to fuck up. Quite a lot, apparently.
So let's have strong and powerful, salaried select committees, training for ministers, and proper parliamentary scrutiny. Let's take the power over point-scoring away from those trying to do it and instead concentrate on the boring detail. Mmmm, boring detail
