    Hi,
    Can Questions like these come, asking for the discretionary policies made by the UK govt in b/w 1998-2008, or something like that. [reference to Page 18-20 of the last chapter (20) ]. Coz the entire thing is explained as per the moves they made during that phase. Just wondering :)

    Thanks, and sorry for making a new thread :D

    Hi,

    In theory yes, as this material is part of the Core Reading and so is examinable. However, so far, the exams under the current syllabus (ie since 2010) have not required detailed knowledge of actual economic events in the UK.

    You should certainly be aware of and understand the general idea of constrained discretion, ie essentially a framework of targets and/or rules allowing some discretion, though.
