put to the test Explanation: ...were given new authority to act that would soon put to the test the new cultural policies... Does that perhaps serve your purpose? My wife has gone to bed, so I can't ask for my usual 2nd opinion on my educated guesses ;-) |

bring into play / make use of (apply) Explanation: I think the idea is like "bring into play" / "make use of". Other examples: "Davant del vent de follia que bufa a Espanya, Catalunya té el deure de ***posar a contribució*** tota la força del seu seny i la potència del seu patriotisme". ...

Very literal but I hope it is clear enough to give an idea of the meaning... |
