Abstract

Policy ‘tsars’ are public appointments but neither the Cabinet Office nor the Commissioner for Public Appointments seem willing to introduce a code of practice to secure propriety and effectiveness. To fill this gap, Ruth Levitt and William Solesbury have drafted a simple code. Among other things, it calls for more formality in selection and appointment processes, greater diversity in the appointees, and for a final, fully evidenced and argued report to be the norm.
