In its former guise of Political and Economic Planning (PEP), it drew up the blueprint for what became the National Health Service and the Race Relations Act. More recently, it has become respected for its agenda-setting work on young offenders, ethnic diversity, welfare and the labour market.
- PSI was formed in 1978 through the merger of Political and Economic Planning (PEP, established in 1931) and the Centre for Studies in Social Policy (CSSP, established in 1972).Source
