Abstract
The abolition of the GLC in 1986 left London without a metropolitan authority for a period of 14 years. During this 'interregnum', the lack of accountability and the blurring of responsibilities became a matter of acute concern. The creation of Greater London Authority in 2000 countered these criticisms by apparently creating a clear new focus for the government of London. To what extent have the new arrangements succeeded in establishing clear lines of accountability as envisaged by the architects of GLA Act, 2000? This paper examines some of the complexities in the new governance of London and the blurring of accountability that bedevils a wide range of public services.
