European governments are facing similar problems in terms of the ethical use of technology, ageing public servants and the need to attract young talent to public administration, Portugal’s public administration minister has told EURACTIV. Public administration is a workplace where digital skills are particularly needed. Portugal is investing €90 million in the Portuguese National Administration Institute to develop the digital proficiency of its public servants. For Leitão, the objective is to “have 100,000 public workers with these improved qualifications by 2030, perhaps even by 2026”. https://www.euractiv.com/section/digital/news/eu-countries-facing-common-challenges-on-e-governance-says-portuguese-minister/

Vietnam introduced national guidelines on social media behaviour on Friday which encourage people to post positive content about the Southeast Asian country and require state employees to report "conflicting information" to their superiors. The code prohibits posts which violate the law and "affect the interests of the state" and applies to state organisations, social media companies, and all their users in Vietnam. "Social media users are encouraged to promote the beauty of Vietnam's scenery, people and culture, and spread good stories about good people," reads the code, which was contained in a decision from the information ministry and dated June 17. https://www.reuters.com/world/asia-pacific/vietnam-introduces-nationwide-code-conduct-social-media-2021-06-18/ It was not clear to what extent the decision was legally binding, or how it would be enforced.

Plans to scrap existing UK data protection rules and replace them with an altogether new regime are on the horizon following recommendations made by a special taskforce commissioned by the prime minister. The taskforce, comprising three senior Conservative MPs, has branded GDPR “prescriptive and inflexible” and has urged Boris Johnson to replace the rules with a new framework for data protection that doesn’t stifle growth and innovation. https://www.itpro.co.uk/policy-legislation/data-protection/359915/government-to-consider-gutting-gdpr-rules Yesterday, on June 16, the Taskforce on Innovation, Growth and Regulatory Reform published a report outlining their vision to “refresh the UK’s approach to regulation now that we have left the EU”. What’s being presented as an “independent report” has been written by a taskforce of three conservative MPs, selected by a conservative Prime Minister to advise a conservative Government in the pursuit of their deregulatory agenda. Yet, the Report is significant, because it signals the Government’s desire to gut GDPR and your privacy rights. Some of these suggestions are likely to appear as policy proposals in the near future. Open Rights Group reviewed their proposal to “Replace GDPR with a new UK framework for data protection”: it is only six pages, but riddled with blatant lies and an obtuse interpretation of the few facts presented to bless potential Government proposals. https://www.openrightsgroup.org/blog/stand-up-for-privacy/

The New York Times: BREAKING NEWS U.S. lawmakers introduced sweeping antitrust legislation aimed at restraining Big Tech, the most ambitious effort to update monopoly laws in decades. The bills — five in total — take direct aim at Amazon, Apple, Facebook and Google. The proposals would make it easier to break up businesses that use their dominance in one area to get a stronghold in another, would create new hurdles for acquisitions of nascent rivals, and would empower regulators with more funds to police companies.

This report analyses academic research careers, with a focus on the “research precariat”, defined as postdoctoral researchers holding fixed-term positions without permanent or continuous employment prospects. It identifies policies and practices that aim to improve researchers’ well-being, develop more diverse, equitable and inclusive research systems, attract and retain the best talent in academia, and ultimately improve the quality of science. The report presents a conceptual framework and synthesis of available data and policy information. It draws on a survey of OECD countries that included country notes and interviews with policy officials, funders, representatives of research performing organisations and researchers. It offers recommendations and a set of policy options to improve working conditions and professional development, better link funding to human resource policies, make governance more inclusive, promote equal opportunities and diversity, improve human resource management, promote inter-sectoral and international mobility, and develop the evidence base on research careers. https://www.oecd-ilibrary.org/science-and-technology/reducing-the-precarity-of-academic-research-careers_0f8bd468-en
