Abstract
The Labour Market Policy Group (LMPG) of the Department of Labour maintains a labour market research and programme evaluation function. Their purpose is to carry out high-quality policy-relevant research and evaluation and to provide quality assurance and peer review on research. survey and policy work. In addition, policy advisory staff from portfolio-based policy teams in NZIS, IRS, OSH and LMPG also carry out and commission research projects. With respect to any potential research area we ask: is there a 'problem that needs fixing·, how can or do existing policies affect the 'problem'. and are there other policies that might be effective in achieving policy goals. This paper outlines the criteria for choosing research and evaluation projects, lists the priorities for 2001 and beyond.
