In: Public administration: an international quarterly, Band 65, Heft Autumn 87

Abstract

Reviews The Mystery of Crichel Down based on the relevant documents released under the 30-year-rule. Reviews are provided by a senior civil servant, who draws out the 3 main aspects of the case and comments on the timeless lessons on the bureaucratic and political process which it demonstrates; and by an academic specialist, who notes the defects of the one-man enquiry, and the many important questions arising from this case which have yet to be resolved.
