answer text <p>There is no firm guidance on this matter as each consultation is different; some will make a call for evidence on a topic and others will seek views on the details of a new Government policy. The Consultation Principles (copy attached), which are published on Gov.uk, stress the importance of targeting consultations at a full range of people, businesses and voluntary bodies affected by the policy. The guidance notes that departments should consider targeting specific groups and ensure they are aware of the consultation and can access it.</p> more like this

answer text <p>A revised set of consultation principles was published in 2016 to give clear guidance to government departments on consultations. These principles are attached to this answer.</p><p>These do not provide exact criteria for when consultations should and should not be undertaken, as it is important to consider the specific circumstances for each policy. The Government is committed to engaging with the public and other interested parties through formal and informal consultation, in the most appropriate manner for the policy in question.</p> more like this
