the reason Govt doesn't get to share much data

is because a vocal chunk of the populace get angsty at the thought of Govt having their personal data and snooping on them. the fact that it'd save money and make their lives a lot easier doesn't seem to mean much when weighed against that.

That and the cost of retrofitting a joined up IT system on multiple government agencies that have all traditionally done their own thing.
