The current status and the organization of the UK Large Telescope programme are summarized. Some scientific and design issues are discussed on the basis of work done for the SERC Large Telescope Panel report. A national Phase A programme is now underway addressing more detailed aspects of these questions. This study will culminate in a final proposal for funding in 1990.
