Many government bodies relate to each other through 'contracts'. But these contracts are not, in general, regulated or enforced by the law. Drawing on the results of a case-study of NHS contracts, this book identifies significant problems faced by the parties to internal government contracts, many of which stem from the lack of legal regulation. This study uses a novel public law analysis to suggest ways of making internal contracts work more fairly and effectively.
