I worked for a Federal Department that I would swear after every election had a change of name, by other portfolios being added or removed. The absolute wastage that went on scrapping all the forms, brochures, name badges, building identification etc, etc. each time, (and we had offices Australia wide and overseas) and reprinting with the new name. A little less impact now with electronic forms and booklets. Agree 100%. Taxpayers I think only become aware of a small percentage of the wastage that goes on out there in government.
I can't see what was wrong with the waratah as a logo, and was easily understood as NSW. But, politicians (and many managers) have this 'dog and the telegraph pole' mentality - have to leave their mark.
