In health informatics though, failures are forgotten and
swept under the carpet as rapidly as possible. Or they are
rebranded as "indefinitely deferred successes"...
or all the evaluation reports are just kept secret so no one
knows what happened!
Do we need to insist, as is now required for all clinical trials, that
when projects are planned, there is a commitment made that the full
reports will be published and made freely available for ever?

It would be easier to insist that all publicly funded projects
deliver publicly available output. And we can enforce this through
current FOI if any organisation would like to lead on pursuing that.
