Ministers on Integrating Public Input into Decision-Making

Research output: Chapter in Book/Report/Conference proceedingChapter

Abstract

This chapter focuses on what ministers think about how to integrate public input into their decision-making and still show leadership within that context of increased input into government. Ministers discussed the challenges and constraints for political leadership: the need to balance expert and mass opinion; the importance of evaluating the quality of the input they get; the politics of the decision-making process; and leading in a context of increased public input into government.
