IfG Webinar | What should civil servants do during the general election campaign?

Civil service activity is restricted during the formal ‘pre-election period’, with civil service impartiality protected by government guidance and measures to stop public funds being used for campaigning purposes.
So how should civil servants navigate this period of heightened political sensitivity? How does the work of the civil service change in the campaign? And what can civil servants do to prepare for a potential transition of power?
Ahead of the general election on 4 July, this IfG webinar explored all these questions and more, and asked what lessons can be learned from previous election campaigns and past transitions of power.
🎧 The panel also recorded a Question Time special Inside Briefing podcast, answering more of the questions asked online during this webinar: www.institutef...
