Major changes to Local Government in Wales

The following major changes have occurred to Local Government since I was first elected in 1989
1) End of the two tier system with County Councils and District Councils merging to form unitary authorities
2) Cabinet System of Governance with Scrutiny committees
3) Further Education and Higher Education taken out of local government
4) Chief officers were paid on a national scale depending upon council size
5) Thev autonomy of schools massively increased

Which of these changes has made things better?
