An article on the granting of responsible government in Southern Rhodesia (now Zimbabwe) by the British Imperial Government in 1923. ; The granting of Responsible Government to Southern Rhodesia in 1923 was perhaps one of the most extraordinary acts of the Imperial Government in the twentieth century. Winston Churchill, who had been Secretary of State for the Colonies at the crucial point in the negotiations, remarked in 1927 to a future Prime Minister of Southern Rhodesia, Godfrey Huggins, 'You had — how many did you say? — only 30 000 Europeans when I gave you your constitution; I still don't know why I did it.'* If Churchill was retrospectively surprised, the Colonial Office had been even more doubtful at the prospect of handing over almost a million Blacks to thirty thousand Whites. As Sir Henry Lambert had minuted in 1919: 'To give responsible government to 30 000 whites ruling a million blacks is not only without precedent, but the example of Natal. right up to 1910 shows how great the difficulties would be.'* The question why the Colonial Office, on the eve of the Devonshire Declaration, was prepared to abdicate its responsibilities in this way is one that has never been adequately answered.

This article examines the role of regulatory agencies in the development of joined-up government. It argues that they have the potential to both control and influence those agencies they regulate, and consequently constitute potentially significant catalysts for joined-up government. However, there are dangers that rivalry between regulatory agencies (and their different sponsors) and non-collaborative regulatory regimes (including game-playing and regulatory capture) may frustrate such moves towards joined-up government. It also argues that joined-up government requires joined-up regulation, otherwise so-called "wicked problems" that spread across the joins of government are likely to remain unsolved, or at best partially solved. Moves towards joined-up government, including joined-up regulation, are likely to be hindered by the way in which the state is functionally organised and the entrenched interests of politicians, bureaucrats and professionals that have sustained such an organisational and functional carve-up of the state. Consequently progress towards joined-up government, if the past is anything to go by, is likely to be slow and possibly more aspirational than real.
