Abstract
Purchase of service contracting (POSC) is a characteristic feature of service delivery systems in the American social services. It is also a continuing feature of the post-Seebohm provision of personal social services in England. This common experience prompts questions about why government agencies choose to purchase services rather than provide them directly. The purpose of this article is to examine the rationale for POSC from the British perspective.
