Boo Gay'n Posted November 27, 2022 Share Posted November 27, 2022 I think this is very good, and well worth a browse. Expected, but interesting to see how air travel is still well below 2019 levels. https://www.gov.im//economic-dashboard 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

2112 Posted November 27, 2022 Share Posted November 27, 2022 (edited) Snapshot Statistics are a great tool, however, if the statistics aren’t pleasant, perhaps they could be manipulated to suit? Also will IOMG follow up areas of concern, for example, in February 2023 Budget? After all as many contributors on here have said, IOMG aren’t exactly ‘nimble’.

It’s fairly obvious whats wrong if you look at it it looks like they were done by about 10 different people in various different styles. A lot of the data is fairly meaningless too.

A lot of the data is fairly meaningless too. That's not very specific, is it? Don't different sets of data require different styles of presentation? Would this not naturally occur if different departments contributed? What data are meaningless - the ones you don't like, or the ones you don't understand? I am not a government shill, but generalised slagging off of everything because it's come from the government is lazy and boring. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What would you like to see and how would you want it to be presented? I know Microsoft Power BI (produced their graphics) as a system, and you can pick various presentational approaches. Bear in mind that it can only work with the databases that you actually have. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I take it you too see the borrowed £400M coming in during the end of 2021 (which was promptly run down). If we hadn’t raised that we’d be very close to the wire.

When we have an annual PS wage bill of £500M a year, £40M being drawn from revenue for pensions (not forgetting the pensions liability black hole itself) and the other various commitments that Govt has entered into - £700M doesn't look such a generous margin?

Interesting too that although it was down to peanuts, the pension reserve has finally gone to meet its maker. The current account is now exposed to every penny of public sector pension expenditure. PS - I said it was well worth a browse... 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
