ESRC UK Centre for Evidence Based Policy and Practice: Working Paper 23
This paper "looks at the factors that can help, or inhibit, outsiders in making a positive contribution. Using external experts from business, academia and elsewhere to contribute to central government policy development and delivery has a long history in the UK. The paper includes insights from some 30 confidential interviews with outsiders themselves, and others with relevant knowledge and experience."
