Abstract

Using evidence from English and Scottish fire and rescue services from 2010-2016, this paper aims to show how divergent performance management regimes can affect public accountability. Performance management regimes enable agencies and the public to hold public sector organisations accountable by facilitating evaluation of their accomplishments. However, our findings show that local as opposed to central control over performance management, can have quite differing implications for public accountability.
