system

Programme, government efficiency and cost-effectiveness, privatisation
and corporatisation

·     New forms of service delivery through privatisation and
corporatisation

·     Lessons to be learned from overseas civil service reform experience

Prospective contributors are requested to submit an abstract of their
papers to the Special Issue Editors, Mr Derek B Gould and Dr Grace O M
Lee, by 15 April 1999.  Articles should be between 4,000 to 7,000
