This publication is based on sessions reviewing attempts to create markets in public services in four key areas: welfare-to-work, social care, health care and local government. It highlights high level lessons aimed at those either currently operating public service markets, or those seeking to extend them. It forms part of the broader work on political transitions, policy successes and recent work with The King’s Fund on the lessons of the coalition’s legislative process to reform the NHS.
