Comment

Abstract

The proposals of the White Paper Reform of Local Government in England are an improvement on the proposals of the Redcliffe‐Maud Royal Commission because they include a further reduction in the number of education authorities. In August last year I commented that the proposed metropolitan authorities of Merseyside, Selnec and West Midlands, and not their constituent distruct authorities should be the education authorities for their areas, and the Government agrees. In addition the White Paper proposes the two further metropolitan authorities of West Yorkshire and Hampshire.
