dc.description.abstractThis paper examines the role of regulators in the UK in integrating sustainable development into public services. In particular, how can we explain the different ways in which different regulators engage with sustainable development? Drawing on insights from rational choice and sociological institutionalism, the paper explains the responses of the three regulators operating in local government, schools and healthcare. It finds that, central government’s failure both to send out clear signals about how to promote sustainable development and to create incentives to ensure it happens has left the integration of sustainable development mediated by regulators’ organisational norms and professional identities.en_GB
