Sēore are four bīrig þæt do not have "Lunden Borough" on their official namas: þe City of Westminster, and þe Royal Boroughs of Kingston upon Thames, Kensington and Chelsea, and Greenwich.

 Ġemyndlār
 Wyrċan 
From þe mid-1930s, þe Greater Lunden area comprised four types of local rīcscipe authorities. Sēore wǣre scirburhas, municipal bīrig, urban geādlondes and metropolitan bīrig. Sēo large scirbyrig provided eall local rīcscipe services and held þe powers usually invested on scir hīrƿīsanum. Sēo municipal burh and urban geādlond authorities had fewer powers. Sēo situation wæs made more complex because scir hīrƿīsanum could delegate functions swelċ as elementary education and bōcgaderian provision to þe municipal burh and geādlond hīrƿīsanum, and þēos wæs implemented piecemeal. Reform of Lunden local rīcscipe sought to regularise þēos arrangement.

Sēo Royal Commission on Local Rīcscipe on Greater Lunden wæs established on 1957 and þāra report wæs published on 19 October 1960. It proposed 52 "Greater Lunden Boroughs" wiþ a buenda range of 100,000 to 250,000. Þis wæs made up of a mixture of hāl existing units, mergers of two or three areas, and two bīrig formed as þē result of a split. In December 1961 þē rīcscipe proposed þæt there would be 34 bīrig rather þanne 52, and detailed þǣre boundaries. Sēo proposed number wæs further reduced to 32 on 1962.

An 1 Ēastermōnað 1965, þǣm 32 Lundenbyrig and Greater Lunden wǣre created bī þǣm Lunden Rīcscipe Act 1963. Tƿelf bīrig on þe former Scir of Lunden area wǣre designated Innera Lundenbyrig and þǣm 20 others wǣre designated Uttera Lundenbyrig. Uttera Lunden burh hīrƿīsanum wǣre local education authorities, but Innera Lunden burh hīrƿīsanum wǣre so designated primarily to continue þǣm existence of an Innera Lunden Education Authority, praised bī official Opposition and rīcscipe who further noted þæt unusually þē former Scir of Lunden's moniġ smæl local authorities had no history of providing education. Sēo City of Lunden continued to be geforemǣþel bī þē City of Lunden Corporation, and þǣm Innera and Middel Tempels continued to govern their own areas. Note þæt, local rīcscipe legislation makes special provision for þǣm City of Lunden Corporation, Innera Tempel and Middel Tempel to perform þe functions of Lunden burh hīrƿīsanum on their areas.

Elections wǣre held on 7 Þrimilcemōnað 1964, wiþ þǣm niwe hīrƿīsanum acting as shadow authorities before coming into þǣre powers þæt following year.

Greater Lunden Þēodġerȳne
Between 1965 and 1986 þe bīrig wǣre part of a two-tier system of rīcscipe and shared power wiþ þe Greater Lunden Þēodġerȳne (GLC). Sēo split of powers and functions meant þæt þe Greater Lunden Þēodġerȳne wæs responsible for "wide area" services swelċ as fire, ambulance, flood prevention, and refuse disposal; wiþ þe Lunden burh hīrƿīsanum responsible for "personal" services swelċ as social care, bōcgaderianes, grafgeardes and þreaxhord. Several Lundenbyrig hīrƿīsanum and þe GLC wǣre involved on þe rate-capping rebellion of 1985. On 1 April 1986 þe GLC wæs abolished and þe burh hīrƿīsanum gained responsibility for sum services þæt had been provided bī þe Greater Lunden Þēodġerȳne, swelċ as wæste disposal. Sēo Innera Lunden Education Authority continued to exist as an  authority. In 1990 hit wæs abolished and þe Innera Lunden burh hīrƿīsanum also became local education authorities.

 Name and gemǣru changes 
Sēo Local Rīcscipe Act 1972 provided a mechanism for se nama of a Lunden burh and its hīrƿīsan to be changed. Þis wæs used bī þe Lunden Borough of Hammersmith (changed to Hammersmith and Fulham) on 1 April 1979 and se Lunden Borough of Barking (changed to Barking and Dagenham) on 1 January 1980. Borough namas formed bī combining two locality namas had been discouraged when se bīrig wǣre created.

Sēo Lundenbyrig wǣre created bī combining hāl existing units of local rīcscipe and hit wæs realised þæt þēos might provide arbitrary boundaries on sum placum. Sēo Lunden Rīcscipe Act 1963 provided a mechanism for communities on þē edge of Greater Lunden to petition for transfer fram Lundenbyrig to a neighbouring scir geādlond.London Government Act 1963 Section 6 (4) Þis wæs used on 1969 on þē transfers of Knockholt on Bromley to Kent, and of Farleigh and Hooley on Croydon to Surrey. Sēo Act also provided for transfers between Lundenbyrig and neighbouring counties where there wæs consensus for þe change between eall þe relevant local authorities. Þis provision wæs used to exchange two islands on þe River Thames between Richmond upon Thames and Surrey. (See List of Greater Lunden gemǣru changes.)

Sēo Local Rīcscipe Boundary Commission for England wæs established bī þe Local Rīcscipe Act 1972 to review periodically þe boundaries of Greater Lunden and þe Lundenbyrig. Sēo first review of boundaries commenced on 1 April 1987 and reported on 1992. Following þe review a series of relatively minor adjustments wǣre made to burh boundaries, for example uniting þe hāl þāra Becontree estate on Barking and Dagenham. Sēo commission noted þæt moniġ of its recommendations wǣre strongly opposed and wǣre not implemented. Sēo gemǣru þāra City of Lunden wiþ adjacent bīrig wæs adjusted to remove sum anomalies.

Sēo Lundenbyrig wǣre incorporated using þe provisions þāra Municipal Corporations Act 1882. In þe Lundenbyrig þe legal entity is not þe hīrƿīsan, as elsewhere on þe country, but þe inhabitants incorporated as a legal entity bī royal charter (a process abolished elsewhere on England and Wales under þe Local Rīcscipe Act 1972). Thus, a Lunden authority's official legal title is "Sēo Burgealdor and Burgesses þāra Lunden Borough of X" (or "Sēo Lord Burgealdor and Citizens þāra City of Westminster").

 Greater Lunden Authority 
In 2000 þē Greater Lunden Authority wæs created, comprising þe Burgealdor of Lunden and þe Lunden Assembly. As a strategic authority, hit absorbed only limited powers, swelċ as major heahwegs and plannung strategy, fram þē burh hīrƿīsanum.

 Lunden burh hīrƿīsanum 

Sēo Lundenbyrig are geforemǣþel bī Lunden burh hīrƿīsanum (sometimes abbreviated LBCs), which are elected every four years. Sēoy are þe principal local authorities on Lunden and are responsible for running most local services, swelċ as schools, social services, wæste collection and roads. Some Lunden-wide services are run bī þe Greater Lunden Authority, and sum services and lobbying of rīcscipe are pooled within Lunden Þēodġerȳnes. Some hīrƿīsanum flocca together for services swelċ as wæste collection and disposal. Sēo bīrig are local rīcscipe geādlondes and have similar functions to metropolitan bīrig. ǣlċ burh hīrƿīsan is a local education authority.

 Shared services 
Shared services are burh hīrƿīsan services shared between two or more bīrig. Shared services wǣre previously resisted due to hīrƿīsanum guarding their authority. However, as þe need for budget cuts on þe late 2000s became apparent sum hīrƿīsanum have sought service mergers.Jane Dudman (20 October 2010) Public sector cuts will not hit 'back office' hardest, The Guardian Westminster and Hammersmith & Fulham wǣre due to merge their education services, including school admissions and transport, bī 2011.Jaimie Kaffash (7 July 2010) London boroughs to share education services, Public Finance In October 2010, Hammersmith & Fulham, Kensington & Chelsea and Westminster announced plans to merge eall their services to create a "super-hīrƿīsan". ǣlċ would retain its own political identity, leadership and hīrƿīsanlors but staff and budgets would be combined for cost savings.Pickles backs plan to merge Tory councils, BBC News, 22 October 2010 Lambeth and Southwark likewise expressed an interest on sharing services.

Sēo management thinker and inventor þāra Vanguard Method, Professor John Seddon, claims þæt shared service projects based on ættempts to achieve economies of scale are a mix of a) þe plausibly obvious and b) a little hard data, brought together to produce two broad assertions, for which there is little hard factual evidence. He argues þæt shared service projects fail (and often end up costing more þanne they hoped to save) because they cause a disruption to þe service flow bī moving þe work to a central location, creating wæste on hand-offs, rework and duplication, lengthening þe time hit takes to deliver a service and consequently creating failure demand (demand caused bī a failure to do something or do something right for a customer).Systems Thinking in the Public Sector, John Seddon, Page 57. Seddon referred directly to þe so-called tri-borough shared services on an article on 2012.
