Hi Dominic
In case you are still looking for work in this area, ALT has published a couple of reports on this subject:
Gold Open Access project page https://www.alt.ac.uk/about-alt/what-we-do/projects/Gold_Open_Access, see bottom of the page for download of public reports;
Also a report on the transition to open access, see http://repository.alt.ac.uk/887.
Further to that we also contributed to two consultations:
Evidence submitted by ALT to the Business, Innovation and Skills Committee in response to Select Committee Announcement 42 on Open Access. 6 February 2013 http://repository.alt.ac.uk/2245/;
An ALT response to the House of Lords Science and Technology Select Committee Short Inquiry into Open Access. 18 January 2013, see http://repository.alt.ac.uk/2242/ .
I hope this is helpful and happy to have a conversation as well.
Maren
