Accountability assessment

What this record does and does not attribute to the government (see methodology). Where an underlying problem predates this government, only its handling is attributed.

Important counter-evidence: the shooting problem did not simply keep accelerating through 2026.

Evidence label: Positive outcome (Reforms or actions that count in the government's favour: the record cuts both ways or it is not credible.). Record as of edition 2026-08-24.
