Today there is not time to tell the moral tale in the public sector of the Passport Office Crisis at the beginning of the 1990s and the Province's dramatic resolution of it-unlike Dr Watson's remark about Sherlock Holmes and the Giant Rat of Sumatra, the world is ready for that story but we have no time.
