Denmark ending letter deliveries is a sign of the digital times
PostNord blames sharply falling demand - will other post firms around the world follow suit?

Another great article from The Consultation Institute (tCI): "#DigitalByDefault was never meant to mean digital only... #consultation that excludes offline residents can breach the #EqualityAct and fail the #GunningPrinciples": www.consultationinstitute.org/news/digital...
Digital by Default Doesn't Mean Digital Only
Digital by default consultations can breach the Equality Act if offline residents are excluded. What practitioners need to check.

Here comes the use of voice based tech to replace contact centres. @DByDNews #digitalbydefault is a lot more than channel shift to webforms @gdsteam @billatnapier

No requirement to carry a physical card but we might need to chip the old people #digitalID #digitalbydefault

Something very interesting at the heart of this - assuming one can overcome a potentially intransigent practical barrier to delivering a policy *is in itself* a philosophical position. How can a universal, compulsory digital ID be rolled out in a country in wch not everyone is digitally connected?

"Though no announcement is expected imminently..."

<- so, next general election should be fun :)

Solidarity with all the teams deciding what approaches to ID verification (to cover both "digital" & non-digital channels as most need to do) to take in meantime

Mahmood obtains injunctions over hacked LAA data www.lawgazette.co.uk/news/mahmood...

Legal Aid Agency data breach www.gov.uk/government/n...
While Crown court claim assessments and payments have now recommenced, trying to secure urgent funding for experts has become a headache. The Gazette also understands some firms are having to keep paper timesheets because of difficulties time recording without a legal aid order. The ministry told the Gazette that providers can submit a request for a prior authority without confirmation of a representation order being in place. For civil applications, providers would need to call customer support, obtain a contingency reference number, and email the paper application. Payments for the expert will then be covered by the LAA's 'average payments scheme', which the provider would have to opt into each week to receive payment.
