Bureaucratic Responsiveness in UK Statutory Instruments

In research recently published in Public Administration, Shaun Bevan investigates what determines the bureaucratic agenda. The study uses data on the policy content and ministry jurisdictions of UK statutory instruments from 1987 to 2008. It finds strong effects of the policy agenda of both British Government and the EU legislative agenda on statutory instruments.
