DESCRIPTION:Policy and Politics: synergy or dysergy?  \n\nLord Lansley wil
 l consider how policy is made\, taking account of evidence and influences\
 ; he will look at how policy-making interacts with the political process\,
  exploring whether politics adds value to the objective work of policy- ma
 kers in government and beyond\, or whether the two processes\, of governme
 nt and politics\, tend to conflict in terms of processes and outcomes. He 
 will argue that a clearer focus on outcomes\, both in policy analysis and 
 in politics\, would enable more transparent democratic accountability and 
 a more synergistic relationship between the political process and the dema
 nds of government. \n\nLord Lansley was formerly a civil servant\, Directo
 r of the Conservative Research Department\, Member of Parliament and a Cab
 inet Minister in the last Coalition government. \n\nThis seminar will be h
 eld under the Chatham House Rule.
