Intriguing choice of muzak while waiting for Michael Gove to unveil lessons form the pandemic.... may feel obliged to live tweet... (there was applause at one stage...) can you really be this late for an online speech? Maybe Lindsay Hoyle has summoned him?
v interesting that this is being hosted by Smarter Govt Commission (but smart does not extend to being on time..). Nick Herbert refers to bold Ditchley speech last year (I thought it was a bit of a non-event..) . Yippee Q and A...
Gove - opening - this is one of those times when need for reform more evident.. made strengths and weaknesses made more vivid... Lots of wartime parallels here (Johnson as Attlee??? new one that)

Some thoughts on the Cameron/Greensill/Crothers affair.. we have focussed a lot on ministers and civil servants. The rules clearly need tightening up - but at least there is a semblance of rules - but there is a grey area.
One of the Maude/Crothers reforms of the Cabinet Office was to bring in a lot of business expertise.. give them desks in govt -- and a role advising on managing contracts with strategic suppliers
Here's the most recent (?) list of the current "Crown Representatives" helping out the crown commercial service assets.publishing.service.gov.uk/government/upl…

First haircut since September.. no holidays to talk about so we talked about #brexit and #covid.
On #brexit apparently hairdressers - or mine at least - gets all his supplies from the EU. just restocked to reopen. prices have doubled since he last ordered.. puts it down to #brexit.. even if these are teething costs -- will they go back down?
frustration that the local council @RBKC slow and bureaucratic in processing loans.. systems not talking to each other. big burdens on small business of reapplying even where they know businesses have been shut. Money coming after needed.

So what exactly is the Office for Health Promotion? it clearly is part 2 of the plan to reform @PHE_UK (@instituteforgov explainer here) - the creation of Andrew Lansley as part of his reforms
PHE's infection control and preparedness functions are already going to the National Institute for Health Protection under Dido Harding. That was part one of its dismemberment gov.uk/government/pub…
Govt said back then it would think about what to do about PHE's wider health promotion activities. Those campaigns on obesity, tobacco, alcohol etc that PHE did will now be undertaken by the Office of Health Promotion gov.uk/government/new…

ooh PM @CommonsLiaison - first question on #netzero and whether COP unit needs more resources - "well staffed" but will be beefed up through the year. PM talking up NZ commitments (but big question will be what about 2030)?
@CommonsLiaison Now Jones pointing out policy contradictions..(Cumbria, APD, aid cut) PM points to NDC (68% by 2030 over 1990) and "incredible record of doing it.." PM seems very on this... "colossal amount done"
@CommonsLiaison now on to Oneweb ... did PM sign the cheque -- this is a more flustered answer...were he and the CX involved? "whole of govt commitment" - BEIS does space strategy..
