		Secondly, it notes, a recent study conducted by council researchers shows that hawkers often fall prey to exploitative practices and are victims of crimes such as mugging and theft.
		Policies on labour migration need to straddle the divide between domestic and foreign policy, as well as state sovereignty and regional markets, and should be negotiated and formulated in a regional multilateral forum.
		Studies commissioned by the dwaf promoted the concept of integrated catchment management, emphasising that hydrological catchments were natural units for both natural resource management and socio-economic planning.5 Although the concept was scientifically sound, it also brought major political obstacles with it.

		In the late 1970s many of the policies subsequently introduced by the Thatcher governments were formulated at the CPS, including the mechanics of monetarism, privatisation and trade union reform.
		On education policy, the CPS called, from as early as 1982, for a concentration on standards, parental choice and the devolution of power to schools.
		Policy proposals will concentrate on how to realise a more equitable system; how to ensure that services are responsive to their clients; and how to improve the morale, terms and conditions, and recruitment of public services staff.

	Centre for Cultural Policy Studies: 2005 Events - Cultural Policy Research Conference (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-23)
		The one-day conference "Exploring Critical and Instrumental Approaches to Cultural Policy Research" was co-funded by the Centre for Cultural Policy Studies and the Humanities Research Centre at University of Warwick, and organised by Jane Woddis, then a PhD student at the Centre.
		Such studies are being undertaken not only by academic researchers, but also, increasingly, by cultural funders, independent and commercial agencies, and to some extent by arts and media organisations or networks themselves.
		She noted that the DCMS has found shortcomings in its instrumentalist policies, but is finding both theoretical and practical policy difficulties in its attempt to move to one that recognises the value of art ‘for its own sake’.

	BBC NEWS \| Politics \| Full text of Clarke's speech
		Policy is more likely to be influenced by the results of a focus group or a newspaper editorial than by disinterested consideration of the evidence.
		The infamous example of the Prime Minister suggesting that criminals might be taken to a cashpoint and made to pay on the spot, was unfortunately all too typical of his administration's tendency for government by gimmick.
		A Minister's statement on the floor of the House is an afterthought rather than his or her primary opportunity to explain policy.

		that led us along that path in the first place, because we are all here not merely because we believe in a miscellaneous collection of policies but because we believe that those policies are founded upon certain principles.
		Those are the three beliefs with which we started the Centre and from which we gradually spread out to make the principles and policies which have been successful.
		My worry now is that sometimes we are talking about policies without talking about the underlying principles and beliefs which are absolutely vital to their continuation.
