| Sumario: | How can we ensure high-quality public services such as health care and education? Governments spend huge amounts of public money on public services such as health, education, and social care, and yet the services that are actually delivered are often low quality, inefficiently run, unresponsive to their users, and inequitable in their distribution.

Le Grand has just completed a period as policy advisor working within the British government at the highest levels. |
