institutions sous tutelle
Explanation:
sous la tutelle des "buffer bodies"

"Buffered institutions?: British universities, then, inhabit a distinctive zone between the
public sector, of which they are not formally a part, and the truly private sector, such as the University of Buckingham. They are regulated by the "buffer bodies" of funding councils, such as HEFCE, but these bodies cannot directly intervene in the governance of autonomous institutions. Rather, they can apply pressure through their funding allocations and demand adherence to grant conditions."

" Is there anything that national buffer bodies or governments should do to help or should they leave it to institutions?

Que pourraient éventuellement faire les organes de tutelle ou les gouvernements nationaux, ou ces derniers doivent-ils laisser l'initiative aux établissements ?"

institutions au fonctionnement sans friction


Explanation:
Elles fonctionnent parfaitement et de façon autonome. Et surtout, il n'y a pas d'antagonisme ou de rivalité entre les universités.
