Criteria for assessing the quality of policy advice and reports
The following standards will be used to assess the quality of policy advice provided to the Minister:
-

-
The problem or issue to address is identified, including underlying causes, size and materiality.
-
The context for advice is set out, including wider Government policy, relevant legislation and Ministry policy frameworks.
-
The assumptions behind the advice are explicit, and the argument is logical and supported by facts.
-
The facts are accurate and all material facts are included.
-
An adequate range of options has been presented and each has been assessed for benefits, costs and consequences to the Government and affected stakeholders.
-
There is evidence of adequate consultation with interested parties, and possible objections to proposals/content are identified and considered.
-
The format meets Cabinet Office requirements; the material is effectively, concisely and clearly presented,has short sentences in plain English and is free of grammatical or spelling errors.
-
The product quality will be supported by a process that provides for circulation of drafts for critiquing byother government agencies, other affected stakeholders, and managerial and other internal peer review and checking procedures.
-
The problems of implementation, technical feasibility, timing or consistency with other policies/reports have been considered.
