ANNUAL CONFERENCE OF THE UK PUBLIC ADMINISTRATION COMMITTEE (PAC)
2005-01-20 18:07

UNIVERSITY OF NOTTINGHAM 5TH – 7TH SEPTEMBER 2005

Supported by:

Journals: Public Policy & Administration; International Journal of Public Sector
Management; Public Money & Management;

Organisations: Public Management and Policy Association; Public Administration Group
(Policy Studies Association); International Public Management Network
The delivery of Public Services has never been as central to the political agenda as it
is today in the UK. The focus on public services is now intense. There has also rarely
been more research activity taking place on public services. At the same time, the
machinery of government in the UK is rapidly evolving.

The need for expert, independent, analysis of new policies, administrative changes and
management reforms has never been more necessary. PAC 2005 provides the best opportunity
to hear about the latest developments in the field.
