With tighter budgets and increasing expectations, getting value for money from public services is as important as ever. This seminar, organised by the Centre for Market and Public Organisation (CMPO), will present the views of leading academic experts, front line service managers and policy makers.
There will be plenty of time for discussion and questions.
