In which situation can a policy be modified?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: When the policy outcomes are not as expected
After a policy is implemented, the government reviews its impact and outcomes. It can modify the policy if results are unsatisfactory, new issues arise, or the policy is not meeting its objectives. A court order may lead to a change, but policy modification is not limited to that situation. Exam tip: remember policy-making as a continuous process—decision, implementation, review, and revision when needed.
