"I do not believe Soviet bureaucratic initiatives like One Public Sector, Labour’s Total Place (and Barnet’s Future Shape / Easy Council) ideas are... the way forward." Barnet councillor Mark Shooter, 4 September 2010

'London Borough of Barnet: Procurement and Contract Management', Association for Public Service Excellence, March 2012
