Moving out is still in

Article Abstract:

Companies are still relocating offices away from city centres, but for different reasons from those which motivated relocation in the 1980s. Now, the main reason for relocation is the opportunity to establish a more efficient workplace to meet the demands of different working practices. In 1994, 19 large companies moved out of central London, for example, and there are indications that companies could be seeking new locations to prepare for the growing cost differences between central London and the provinces.

Article Abstract:

The UK government's new 'Rural England' White Paper is designed to put forward plans for a revived countryside economy.
