would value your input on this..
just spoke to a government official who is administering a data collection that all councils are submitting at present.
Upon us discovering an error with a file we get from schools we were told that the software supplier was aware of this issue along with the government during last years collection.
This year it has appeared again, BUT according to the official this does not mean that there was a known issue but merely they were aware of an issue which they flagged up with the software supplier who could not fix it and they did not chase the software supplier for the last 12 months about it.
When I challenged this he replied that they did not know about it or on purpose sweep it under the carpet.
Therefore they were aware of a problem that was not resolved nor did they chase it up, BUT they did not know of the problem or deliberately ignore it.
there you go, how to be aware of something but not know about it!
this has so many possibilities in life, could become the quote of the century! (maybe...!)
Sounds like Sir Humphrey speak to me!
what do you all think?
