About the book

"This book uses a case study methodology with quantitative and qualitative elements, and draws on interviews with senior policy-makers in government departments and the chief executives of selected agencies." "The role of government departments, in establishing agencies and working in an increasingly agencified environment, is crucial. It appears that policy-making is relatively unchanged, which calls into question the openness of government departments to expert body advice." "The book concludes that the contribution of agencies is not significant in policy advice. Therefore, agencification may not be the most appropriate institutional response to social inclusion problems."--BOOK JACKET.
