Survey

The Network carried out a survey in 2005 to find out how members and their colleagues see themselves and their roles. It may also help inform the professionalism agenda of the Cabinet Office. It was a follow-up to surveys done in 1999, 1997 and 1993. The 1999 results are available here, (316kb).
The 2005 results are here (158kb).
