One of the most profound changes in British public life over the
last twenty years has been the increasing concern with probity and
standards. Some of that concern has been the product of scandals
such as the cash for questions affair and the expenses scandal;
some of it reflects the erosion of trust in politicians and in
traditional approaches to government and administration. The book
analyses the way new machinery and new rules have been put in place
in different parts of the public sector as a protection against
corruption and conflict of interest and as a spur to raising
standards. It provides the first full-length treatment of the
evolving integrity agenda in the United Kingdom. The book traces
the impact of the Committee on Standards in Public Life which set
out the Nolan principles in its first report in 1995 and examines
how those principles have been applied in different sectors -
Parliament, the executive, the civil service, local government and
the devolved governments - and how they have been applied to the
problems of party funding and lobbying. Finally, it assesses the
changing level of support for the Committee's mission and the
impact of its work both on the quality of public life itself and on
public confidence. -- .
