In the last couple of decades the public sector in UK has undergone a series of different transformations that are known as new public management (NPM). The report analyzes the statement put forth by Noordhoek & Saner (2005) that 'new public management held the promise of changing traditional bureaucracies into a results-oriented and transparent form of government, directed and supported by efficient and effective public managers'. The report has therefore been commissioned to critically analyze the legacy of NPM in the UK to understand the effectiveness and efficiency it has induced within the public service management.
