The purpose of this paper is to identify opportunities and risks which the Special Operating Agencies (SOA) concept presents for parent departments and, insofar as central agencies are involved, more widely for the public service. It will explore the strategies departments and central agencies might adopt to exploit these opportunities, while limiting the risks, in the course of selecting and initiating candidates for SOA status, negotiating and implementing flexibilities, and monitoring the progress of the agencies.
