Abstract
We give an alternative short proof of a recent theorem of J.A. Hillman and P.A. Linnell that an elementary amenable group with finite Hirsch number has, module its locally finite radical, a soluble normal subgr oup with index and derived length bounded only in terms of the Hirsch number of the group.
