The aim of Policy Review is simple: to provide clear unbiased analysis of the public policy issues of the day.
Policy Review Magazine examines issues in-depth, providing real business intelligence on the making and managing of public policy. We don’t indulge in editorialising. Instead, we let experts in their field - from Ministers to those that implement policy – explain the arguments in their own words.
Policy Review Network is a forum for high-level discussion and networking in a neutral space. Events enable policy makers and stakeholders to engage and reach wider audiences on pertinent issues. The network provides a forum for debate and exposure to arguments that senior executives need to hear.
This issue of Policy Review,however, focuses on the long-term futureof the NHS. We hear a range of views on the future of health, in the most policy-rich and policy-congested period since the early 1990s.
We do not neglect our other interests; local government is going through an empowerment agenda that could find health, education, police and others facing local accountability in a way not see since before the Second World War. Localism, trumpeted by Labour, is being adopted by the Conservatives. David Cameron has tilted towards elected mayors but his own councillors now sit in all the best civic seats in England. Gordon Brown, meanwhile,is caught between a rock and a hard place twice – Northern Rock and Scottish devolution
Roy Lilley - Policy vacuum in the health service
James Kirkup - Prime Minister's fate out of his hands
Hamish Melrum - Time to listen to the doctors
David Walker - Mystery of the missing R-word
Jon Silverman - Policy emphasis firmly on youth justice sector
Mike Baker - Can we afford US model of funding for our universities
Jason Beattie - Tough times ahead for new Mayor Johnson
