The Framework's explanatory power for policymaking in Westminster majoritarian jurisdictions is tested and, based on rigorous comparative analysis, recommendations are made for its refinement.  The monograph also offers striking lessons for policymakers about how to negotiate successfully with general practitioners.  .
