>'What is the vaunted laptop policy, for example? It is a matter of 
constant discussion, yet we really do not know what it entails. This 
lack of clarity leads to sterile debate. (...) Policies are not made on television or on the radio. Serious policy must
 be written down, it must contain details, and it must include 
information about costs. (...) Another point that seems trivial but unfortunately needs repeating is 
that transparency about policy is not enough. The data that government 
puts out must also be accurate.'
