ABSTRACT
Throughout this book, we have been looking at the possibilities for administrative justice – accountable and legitimate decision making by government in all its manifestations from government departments to agencies to local authorities – not forgetting the utility regulators such as OFTEL, OFWAT and OFGAS, and those private bodies contracted to exercise what are essentially public functions, be they a firm removing household rubbish or nuclear waste or supplying laundry or orthopaedic services to the National Health Service. However classified, all are a part of, or have a role to play, in the machinery of government, from the macro to the micro.
