The third edition examines new management structures and accountabilities that follow the policy initiatives of the central Conservative administration. It appraises the impact of the three-pronged reform of the Thatcher years: impact on local authorities'' financial resources, new structures of local government and new pressure to contract services out to the private and voluntary sectors.
