Wounded of Southwark

Ofcom’s latest Annual Plan understandably points out that the organisation is being asked by Government to do more for less money, But the regulator’s wounded pride is writ large in the document, and it does tend to lay it on a bit thick.  For instance:

‘There is still demand from the government for Ofcom to offer its technical and
industry knowledge to provide support on policy issues……. However, given our limited resources we must adopt a rigorous approach to prioritising our work and focusing our efforts where we can make a beneficial change’. 

‘Inevitably, there will be more difficult choices to make in relation to resource priorities than at any point in Ofcom’s history…Ofcom is already delivering its duties with reduced resources that are 27% lower, in real terms on a like-for-like basis, than those of its predecessors’.

OK, we get the message…
