Donald MacDougall (16333 words)
MacDougall was not in the traditional civil-service mould, but he became one of the indispensable public servants of his generation as a trusted and objective outsider who could always see problems in a new and unprejudiced light.
MacDougall had high expectations of Iain Macleod, the new Chancellor, and in the short fortnight that was granted to him before he entered hospital and his premature death, Macleod endorsed MacDougall's recommendation that the abolition of investment grants to industry should be balanced by reduced company taxation, a policy introduced by his successor, Tony Barber.
MacDougall was president of the Royal Economics Society in 1972 and chairman of the executive committee of the National Institute of Economic and Social Research from 1974 to 1987.
