Power to the People
The Power Commission was established to discover what is happening to our democracy. It sought to establish why people were disengaging from formal democratic politics in Britain and how these trends could be reversed. The commission of 10 people developed a set of proposals and recommendations to increase and deepen political participation, which were presented in a final report - Power to the People - published in February 2006. The report is based on primary and secondary research, and, crucially, evidence submitted by the public themselves.
