In 1964, at the request of the local authority associations (Association of Municipal Corporations, The County Councils Association, The Rural District Councils Association and The Urban District Councils Association), the Minister of Housing and Local Government, Sir Keith Joseph, set up two committees of enquiry into the management and staffing in local government.
(1) Committee on the Management of Local Government (Maud Committee)
This was set up, under the chairmanship of Sir John Maud "to consider, in the light of modern conditions, how local government might best continue to attract and retain people (both elected representatives and principal officers) of the calibre necessary to ensure its maximum effectiveness". Its report was published by H.M.S.O. in five volumes. Volumes 1-4 in May 1967 and Volume 5 in June 1967.
(2) Committee on the Staffing of Local Government (Mallaby Committee)
This was set up, under the chairmanship of Sir George Mallaby "to consider the existing methods of recruiting local government officers and of using them, and what changes might help local authorities to get the best possible service and help their officers to give it." Its report was published in March 1967 by H.M.S.O.
