Abstract: Suburbanisation of office employment has been a feature of the changes in British conurbations since 1951. None the less, a crucial role is still seen for the CBDs, especially since decentralisation has been selective, involving mostly routine work. The conurbations outside London, it is argued, should operate mainly a CBD-oriented office strategy, although intra-conurbation movements will continue in London itself. Finally, it is noted that past efforts to shift office employment from London to other regions has not been successful; new techniques more closely geared to the dynamics of office location are needed.
