The abolishment or removal of non-departmental public body that is funded by the taxpayers money also known as Quangos is deemed to be a drain on the pockets of the government as spearheaded by the Gordon Brown led Labour government.

The move to dissolve or reduce the number of quangos has also garnered support from the present day government but the issue is the delay displayed in its execution. A situation that can be attributed to various facts of which the accurate can only be one of speculation.

One being the body set up primarily as most would deduce to be an outlet to exercise an aspect of Prime Ministerial Patronage, that is the ability to reward followers and supporters financially or with status through quangocracy would become a thing of the past. Or the delay could be ascribed to the very structure of the coalition government that has merged two parties with their own manifesto and political agenda.

Aptly termed the most restive parliament in 50years, backbenchers who usually observe from the back now attack the prime minister, and the cabinet ministers; the collective decision-making body of the government consisting of 22 cabinet ministers are also rebelling and giving the premier a tough time at question time in the House of Commons.

 Cabinet Ministers seem to have disregarding collective responsibility that binds them to publicly support all governmental decisions made in Cabinet ,irrespective of their personal views and have chosen to express their disagreement with the prime minister in full view of the House of Commons which is meant to scrutinize the work of the government .

Perhaps the most intriguing aspect of this debacle is the unwillingness of the Labour party to seize the opportunity created by the government’s in-house scuffles to their own advantage by ensuring that the proposal brought forward by the last labour government is brought to fruition.

Or maybe on this occasion the leader of the opposition party would rather the abolishment or reduction of quangos is further delayed until he attains office considering that he would also need their creation to lobby party supporters both financially and otherwise.

In either case, the British public awaits the decision of the government and at large as to the fate of quangos in addition to the request that the Members of Parliaments salaries are increased even though many think they are over paid already.
