Three basic methods of attacking the problem have been suggested – reduce the number of cases to be decided; increase the capacity of the system to decide the cases; and reduce the time required to decide individual cases.

The Why, Where And How Of Broadened Public Participation In The Administrative Process, Roger C. Cramton

Cornell Law Faculty Publications

Mr. Cramton argues that broadened public participation will improve administrative decisions and give them greater legitimacy and acceptance. After discussing the types of proceedings in which public participation is desirable and the limitations that should be placed upon it, Mr. Cramton evaluates various proposals for assuring the desired degree of public participation.
