R6-29

January 2000

Response position and delivery status are recorded separately. Acceptance does not establish implementation.

Recommendation

The Cabinet Office should issue guidance on consultation, which would have as its objective a uniformly high and transparent standard of consultation on policy issues and decisions. This might be in the form of a Consultation Code, which would seek to ensure that departments meet the principles set out in the current Cabinet Office document on Best Practice in Written Consultation.
