Ministerial Involvement Scotland, Poland & Hungary Top down approach. Strong ministerial support ease the way and an articulation of a national interest and engagement often gives better circumstances for the networks. The experience is, that the Ministries often find the HPH concept is good publicity for small money, and they therefore can sometimes be persuaded to giving a national support and taking a part in the establishment.
