Issue 11 - Conceptual - Franchise Marketplace Model "Safe Harbour"

Note: issue number should be 11, not 9 – legacy problem merging two lists! ;-)

I’m considering this as closed now, as Chris has addressed the main concern raised originally and seeing no other comment saying otherwise.

Peter, Nig

The term “safe harbour” was used to suggest that the different players involved in the franchise marketplace can be seen by citizens as business as providing trusted and interoperable content and services (whereas intermediaries “outside” the business model might still repackage government content, but not within the same “assured” way).

So to avoid confusion between this and other uses of the safe harbour phrase in different contexts, I suggest we relabel this part of the business model diagram with a simple description: “Trusted and interoperable content and services”.

Nig:

I agree that the term needs to change but I’m not convinced that “assured intermediation” is the answer: if individuals themselves manage transactions (as you suggest they should be able to) then there is no intermediation.

What is the main concern here? That it is trusted? Interoperable? Pick ‘n’ mix availability?

If we can be clearer what is understood here, the right term should emerge…

Line 737. Chris, Bill and I discussed the ‘Safe Harbour’ concept in the diagram some time ago. I felt uncomfortable about the term during the initial review of the model. Whilst we didn’t finally agree on a term, we were reasonably happy with the term ‘Assured Intermediation’. This allows government, or (more desirably?) intermediaries or individuals themselves (with underlying technical support) to manage transactions.
