In this week's podcast round-up of the latest UK IT industry
news, Warwick Ashford reviews the most popular stories online last
week, and looks ahead to the stories breaking in the latest
issue.
Topics include revelations that Tony Blair tried to shorten the
timetable of the NHS National Programme for IT in order to deliver
results in time for a May 2005 general election date, an allegation
that executive editor Tony Collins says is a case of "politics
interfering with practicalities". Also in this podcast, Cliff Saran
discusses a novel approach taken by a number of companies to meet
skills shortages by employing people with autism in the field of
software testing, helping to meet their special needs while also
making the most of their special skills.
