Assessment Task 1: Short answer questions
Question 1
Explain each of the processes and practices relating to whom and what (steps) might
be involved.
Who might be involved? What might be involved
Identifying the scope of a
policy
In the process of policy
making, the government
bodies, stakeholders, and
representatives are involved.

Question 2
In what way/s does define the nature, size, and distribution of a problem ultimately
affect each stage of the policy cycle?
Policy cycle is the method that analyses the policy about its implementation and how it can
be drafted and accessed. If the nature of policy cycle is too wide then the policy makers
can’t implement effective policies. Size also makes a significant role that if size of policy is
to short then the policy cycle can’t explain properly. It can’t support all the stages in
organization. The policy cycle is distributed into different parts such as agenda setting,
adoption, formulation, evaluation. If any of the parts is absent from the policy cycle then it
affects the functioning of the organization.

Question 3
How would you use an analytical policy development framework to minimize the
organizational risk?
There are a different development that helps to minimize the risk, they are divided into four
steps. These are:
Avoidance: In this step, the organization can eliminate and withdraw the risk and remove
the hazards and risk from the workplace.
Reduction: Risk can be decreased or the management can mitigate as the risk is painful or
serious.
Sharing: In this risk can be transferred to other person of the organization and it can be
outsourced and insure.
Retention: The risk in the organization can be minimized through the retention in which the
organization can accept it or they can provide a budget for it.
Question 4
Explain how existing policies and the policy cycle guide the development and review
of new policies.
Policy cycle is the method of understanding the drafting, planning, and implementation of
policies. Policy cycle can be developed through the stages of policy development. It
includes the definition and identification of the issue that determines the issues, policy
research and analysis in which the organization analyses the problem after this they
generate the alternatives and solutions for the problem that leads to the process of
consultation. It also develops the proposals of policy and also modifies the existing policies
that lead to the execution of policies. Lastly, there is reviewing and monitoring of the policy
that leads to the goal of organization. In this way, the cycle can review and guide the
different policies(Williams & Cockcroft, 2018).
