Reforming National Services for Efficiency

Joshua Leon Pearl is dedicated to initiating comprehensive reforms across national government services. The current state of these services, degraded by successive governments, demands urgent attention. Key areas in need of reform include:

• Probate Registry: The centralization of the Probate Registry since 2020 has led to significant delays, causing distress for bereaved families. Previously, obtaining a Grant of Probate took 3-4 weeks; now it can take 4-6 months. Joshua advocates for streamlining this process to reduce waiting times.
• Land Registry: The processing time for lease applications and other registrations has extended to about two years, a stark increase from the past. Joshua aims to address this inefficiency and restore prompt service by addressing staffing issues.
• Court System: Joshua highlights the understaffed and poorly maintained court system, leading to prolonged cases and diminished public confidence in justice. He proposes measures to enhance staffing and maintain facilities.
• Road Maintenance: With poorly maintained roads leading to costly accidents and compensation claims, Joshua supports investing in regular maintenance to prevent such issues and reduce overall costs.
• Impact of VAT on Private School Fees: Joshua warns that VAT on private school fees could force many private and faith-based schools to close, exacerbating the strain on already overcrowded state schools. He advocates for policies to protect educational access.
• Health Service: Despite increased funding, 12% of the British population remains on NHS waiting lists. Joshua supports reforms to improve NHS efficiency and address issues like tax penalties for senior doctors, which have led to a shortage in the medical field.
• Tax System and Property Sector: Joshua calls for a review of the tax system, which currently discourages movement and investment in the property sector due to high stamp duty and reduced capital gains tax allowances. He aims to address these disincentives to promote property market activity.
• Privatisation Issues: Joshua critiques the failures of privatisation, particularly in the water sector, where lack of accountability has led to environmental harm. He supports re-evaluating privatization practices to ensure better management and accountability.
• Addressing Overpopulation: Joshua acknowledges the challenges brought by population growth, accelerated under previous administrations. He emphasizes the need to address the resulting shortages in housing, healthcare, education, and infrastructure.
