Book Synopsis The Reorganisation of British Local Government by : John Dearlove
Download or read book The Reorganisation of British Local Government written by John Dearlove and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 1979-09-20 with total page 324 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume was first published in 1979, just a few years after the Local Government Act of 1972 redrew the map of British local government. Local authorities were also encouraged to change their organization and methods of work; anxiety was expressed about finance, councillor 'calibre' and the credibility of the whole system itself; and neighbourhood councils and public participation in planning were introduced. John Dearlove's aim is to make sense of these changes and the discussion they generated. He does this by showing that both the official case for reorganization and the academic discussion of it have hindered their own understanding by uncritically accepting superficial traditional wisdoms which fail to reveal the concealed ideological positions behind reorganization. Thus, he aims to develop a truly political perspective on reorganisation which is rounded out and given greater depth by the insertion at appropriate points of comparative material drawn from American experience and studies.

Book Synopsis The Boundary Commissions by : D. J. Rossiter
Download or read book The Boundary Commissions written by D. J. Rossiter and published by Manchester University Press. This book was released on 1999 with total page 456 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The four Boundary Commissions, one each for England, Northern Ireland, Scotland and Wales, were established in the mid-1940s and have now been responsible for creating five new maps of Parliamentary constituencies. Despite their importance in British political life, very little has been written about the Commissions and how they work, and much that has been written focuses on the short-term issues of the electoral impact of a new set of constituencies. This volume is a study of the Commissions, involving in-depth interviews with all major interest groups and individuals alongside scrutiny of all relevant documents and statistical analyses of the outcomes.

Bringing to light the complex variety of the lived experiences of residents, it shows how estate pathways were predetermined by factors such as location, design and date, as well as by their local and national social, economic and political contexts. The book highlights what can be learned from some of the successes of less successful housing projects and provides lessons for building sustainable communities in the twenty-first century.
Book Synopsis From virtue to venality by : Peter Jones
Download or read book From virtue to venality written by Peter Jones and published by Manchester University Press. This book was released on 2016-05-16 with total page 228 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From virtue to venality examines the problem of corruption in British urban society and politics between 1930 and 1995. It is not a conventional study of the politics of local government since it seeks to place corruption in urban societies in a wider cultural context. The accounts of corruption in Glasgow – a British Chicago – as well as the major corruption scandals of John Poulson and T. Dan Smith show how Labour-controlled towns and cities were especially vulnerable to corrupt dealings. By contrast the case of Dame Shirley Porter in the City of Westminster in the late 1980s reveals that Conservative-controlled councils were also vulnerable since in London the stakes of the political struggle were especially intense. This book will be of special interest to students of history and politics and those who are concerned about the growth of corruption in British political culture.

Book Synopsis Responsive and accountable? by : Great Britain: Parliamentary and Health Service Ombudsman
Download or read book Responsive and accountable? written by Great Britain: Parliamentary and Health Service Ombudsman and published by The Stationery Office. This book was released on 2011-10-25 with total page 60 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report reveals complaint handling across government to be inconsistent, haphazard and unaccountable, operating without any overarching design, overall standards or common performance framework. This is unhelpful for people who want to change their experience of interacting with a public service by making a complaint. It also means opportunities to improve public services through complaint handling are being missed. There is no shared view across government of the standard of complaint handling that a member of the public can reasonably expect. Complainants may be required to navigate anything between one and four stages of a complaint procedure before 'local resolution' is completed and the complainant can bring their complaint to the Ombudsman. The absence of any clear methodology or machinery to share best practice, or ensure lessons from complaints are learnt across government departments, increases the likelihood of the same mistakes being repeated again and again. The Ombudsman's Principles of Good Complaint Handling are a good starting point for government in the task of ensuring that all departments share an understanding of the importance of fairness, transparency, and accountability. But there is a need for strong leadership from the top, committed to developing a culture across the civil service that values complaints. The report covers the survey of departments, case studies, and gives statistics on complaint handling and the financial costs of poor complaint handling.
