Abstract

A balanced law or policymaking process requires an effective policy
assessment approach.1 However, processes of political decision- making
are frequently not rationally based.2 Many commentators agree that
policymaking is strongly influenced by politics and that the choice of
available policy options is limited by institutional dependencies and politi-
cal factors. 3 In achieving their own goals, participants in the policymaking
process may have different sets of preferences influencing policy evalua-
tion. These different preferences will inhibit collaboration aimed at ascer-
taining the most suitable policy option overall.4 Nonetheless, the principles
of rational discussion and balanced problem solving can be employed in
policymaking processes.
