N2 - POLICY SUCCESS, LOCUS AND FOCUS We very much welcome Mark Bovens helpful endeavour here to refine the analysis in our main paper. Our paper focuses on three dimensions of policy success: process, programme and politics. There are certainly many areas of agreement between us. We agree that there is real value in adding process to the programmatic and political dimensions identified by Bovens, t Hart and Peters in their earlier work. We also agree that our initial policy success heuristic, one of the first forays into this vital aspect of public policy, needs further development, both conceptually and empirically. In this light, any dialogue which helps introduce a greater degree of analytical sophistication is to be welcomed
