According to their own account:
- Policy Connect is a not for profit organisation which bridges Parliament and industry to promote effective policy in five key areas: Skills, Environment, Health, Design & Sustainability. Established in 1995, Policy Connect has developed a niche position within the policy-making process, working across the political spectrum with parliamentarians and decision-makers.[1]
This and their activities suggest that Policy Connect is a front for lobbyists to get close to decision makers.
