Let f be a function of the first Borel class mapping the metric space X to the metric space Y : Hansell has claimed that, if f is σ‐discrete and Y has the extension property for X , then f is necessarily of the first Baire class; but his proof is incomplete. It is shown that the result is true if Y also has a certain local extension property for X . Conditions are given that ensure that Y has both extension properties for X .
