Abstract
This chapter examines the role and work of the Cabinet Office (CO) during the first two terms of the Conservative government, from 1979 to 1987. As the study ends at the general election in June 1987, the past tense will be used throughout, although inevitably many of the procedures and bodies described below continue. The title of the chapter speaks of the ‘Cabinet Office’, but most of it will focus on the work of just one part of that Office, namely the cabinet secretariat. In addition, the CO contained (in 1979) the Central Policy Review Staff (CPRS), the Central Statistical Office (CSO) and a small historical section.
