Good Intentions: Too Little, Too Late?

When the Government nationalised the race relations industry, great hopes were raised in the community, black and white. There are, today, 80 committees, 50 community relations officers working in the field. There is, at national level, the Community Relations Commission. It has been bitterly criticised. And passionately defended. But what are the facts? Are the Commission's resources adequate for the job? Has the Commission won the confidence of the immigrant community? The Commission's chairman Frank Cousins has resigned. Mark Bonham Carter takes over. This week those now concerned with race and community relations debate the Commission's future.
