Chapter 13 in Staff Participation and Public Management Reform, 2005, pp 214-229 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract Between 1987 and the early 1990s a programme of reform rolled out across the New Zealand public sector which was among the most radical attempted anywhere in the world.’ The changes were comprehensive: the public financial management system was overhauled, the statutory basis of relations between ministers and senior officials was revised and responsibility for employment matters was decentralized to the heads of individual government departments.
