However our analysis shows the government has implemented very few of WEAG’s recommendations (Figure1). None of the 42 key recommendations, and only four of 126 detailed recommendations, have been fully implemented. It has partially implemented only7 of the 42 key recommendations (17%), and partially or fully implemented 13 of the 126 detailed recommendations (10%). (From the Executive summary).
