An Introduction to British Government Documents

Published online by Cambridge University Press:  13 February 2019

Extract

It was with some trepidation that I agreed to participate in this workshop by speaking on British government documents, for the subject is very complex and I do not profess to be an authority on it. To cover the topic with any degree of thoroughness would require a course of 30 hours or so, and today I have little more than half an hour. So all I can do is give you an introduction and suggest some reading for those of you who are interested in further study of the subject.
