Description

In New Zealand there has been a major struggle between educationists and the Treasury. The recently published Picot Report on administration and education offers something to both Left and Right the government hand has accepted its major conclusions. In the light of these recent developments, the papers in this volume, drawn from a recent conference instigated by the Royal Commission on Social Policy, provide a commentary on the fast moving scene in policy terms.
