What are the likely employment effects of the new tax credit policies? How might road user charges alter patterns of transport use? Can a change in the provision of pensions affect the decision to retire? How much do policy reforms cost? To what extent are initial costs reduced through policy-induced changes in behaviour?

These are the sorts of questions that microsimulation methods are designed to address.
