TY - JOUR AU - Kneale, Dylan AU - Rojas-García, Antonio AU - Raine, Rosalind AU - Thomas, James PY - 2017 DA - 2017/04/20 TI - The use of evidence in English local public health decision-making: a systematic scoping review JO - Implementation Science SP - 53 VL - 12 IS - 1 AB - Public health decision-making structures in England have transformed since the implementation of reforms in 2013, with responsibility for public health services and planning having shifted from the “health” boundary to local authority (LA; local government) control. This transformation may have interrupted flows of research evidence use in decision-making and introduced a new political element to public health decision-making. For generators of research evidence, understanding and responding to this new landscape and decision-makers’ evidence needs is essential.
