This book, originally published in 1983 examines how effectively in
Britain central government is equipped to secure efficiency and
responsiveness and argues that as a result of shifts in the balance
of power between the executive arm of government in Whitehall and
the legislature in Parliament, the British system of government is
neither as efficient, nor as responsive to popular will, as a
strong democracy requires. The book considers which reforms are
most likely to improve the efficiency of the government and to
prove acceptable to British political and historical traditions. It
reviews the way in which public debate is informed by government
release of information and by the press and raises the question of
how good a guide to the popular will referenda and public opinion
polls are.
