Editor's blog 21 July - Maynard here, and more on the way

Good afternoon. Apologies for a day or two of radio silence, but to paraphrase John Lennon, life has been happening to us while we were busy making other plans.

The latest instalment of The Maynard Doctrine has arrived for your edification (www.healthpolicyinsight.com/?q=node/123). This touches on the vital issue of incentives, which will be addressed in our latest 'Colloquia', which should be up by this evening.

Ex-education secretary Charles 'no great friend of Gordon Brown' Clarke has also released a report for his current evening job paymasters KPMG on Achieving the potential: how best to pay for ever higher expectations of our public services', which will also be reviewed later today on this blog.

See you later on.
