Carefully timed, on September 16th, 2010 over 200 annual reports were tabled in Victoria’s Parliament and dumped on Victoria's fledgling state reporters. Ranging from the Environment Protection Authority to the Community Visitors' Report - they contain some interesting accounts of incompetence.
Don't let these get buried under the weight of the news cycle.
Have a look, see what state-funded/regulated services have been doing, or haven't been doing, in the past year and get involved in the debate.
Presented in a digital format to you, the Victorian community, here, you've no excuse but to sink your teeth in - a la the guardian.
You're invited to pick through these reports and find the flaws, reporting back on anything that you think worth talking more about: crowd-sourced journalism at its best!
