We might never have known about this were it not for the tireless work by the people at ARCH. They issued a FOI request for a copy of an evaluation of the ICS which the government had commissioned from academics at York University. This report had seemingly disappeared and not only from public scrutiny - there were opposition ministers asking to see it too. Read the full story here.
There’s more in Community Care and a bit in the Sunday Times, where e-caf also comes in for a battering.

I wonder why they're not sharing the full report? When I got a FOI document out of our LA I posted it for others to read within minutes. It's since been re-posted all over, which was rather the point of getting it in the first place, to make it public. Right now we're not really much better informed than we were before.
I would be very interested to see it too.
Am guessing that ARCH may be holding onto it just for the mo so that they can give the papers the scoop...
