List of Post Office® branches proposed for closure 5. List of Post Office® branches proposed to remain in the Network • Frequently Asked Questions Leaflet • Map of the Local Area Plan • Branch Access Reports - information on proposed closing branches and details of alternative branches in the Area 3 4 1. Introduction The Government has recognised that fewer people are using Post Office® branches, partly because traditional services, including benefit payments and other services are now available in other ways, such as online or directly through banks. It has concluded that the overall size and shape of the network of Post Office® branches (“the Network”) needs to change. In May 2007, following a national public consultation, the Government announced a range of proposed measures to modernise and reshape the Network and put it on a more stable footing for the future. A copy of the Government’s response to the national public consultation (“the Response Document”) can be obtained at www.dti.gov.uk/consultations/page36024.html. Post Office Ltd has now put in place a Network Change Programme (“the Programme”) to implement the measures proposed by the Government. The Programme will involve the compulsory compensated closure of up to 2,500 Post Office® branches (out of a current Network of 14,300 branches), with the introduction of about 500 service points known as “Outreaches” to mitigate the impact of the proposed closures. Compensation will be paid to those subpostmasters whose branches are compulsorily closed under the Programme.

    UN C IL) LONDON Planning Policy Harrow Council PD Box 37 Civic Centre Station Road Harrow HAl 2UY Date: 2 March 2018 Sadiq Khan, Mayor of London New London Plan GLA City Hall London Plan Team Post Point 18 The Queen’s Walk London SE1 2AA By email: [email protected] Dear Mr Khan, New London Plan — representations from London Borough of Harrow Harrow Council welcomes the opportunity to comment on the draft new London Plan. The Council acknowledges the significant challenge facing London with respect to accommodating a growing population, addressing housing affordability and ensuring a balanced and sustainable global city with respect to its diverse population, vibrant economy and natural and historic environment. Such a challenge requires positive and proactive responses. Harrow has embarked upon a significant regeneration programme that is set to deliver approximately 5000 new homes and 1,000 new jobs in the Harrow and Wealdstone Opportunity Area, with approximately half of these homes on Council-led sites. We also have a programme of estate regeneration and small-site development on Council housing land. Harrow has a strong track record of delivering on the housing targets set for the borough in the London Plan. In the past eight years our housing completions have exceeded our cumulative London Plan target by almost 40%. Looking ahead, we have facilitated significant uplifts in anticipated housing yields on strategic sites within the Harrow and Wealdstone Opportunity Area, in some instances more than doubling the housing numbers anticipated in the adopted Area Action Plan (prepared jointly with the GLA). The above successes have been driven by an evidence based approach to plan making and the pragmatic assessment and decision making on individual development proposals, in the context of a positive, collaborative working relationship with the GLA, developers and stakeholders.

  • Mayor's Report March 2018
    20th Mayor’s Report to the Assembly Mayor’s Question Time – 22nd March 2018 This is my twentieth Mayor’s Report to the Assembly, fulfilling my duty under Section 45 of the Greater London Authority Act 1999. It covers the period from 9th February – 8th March 2018. Executive summary £24 million for local communities to play a role in regeneration On 7 March I awarded £24 million of funding to projects from across the capital that will enable local people to take an active role in the regeneration of their communities. More than 200 bids for funding were made to my Good Growth Fund, delivered through the London Economic Action Partnership (LEAP), and 27 are now being taken forward, with several organisations receiving funding in the next few months. All of the successful projects will deliver social and economic improvements including investment in community assets, workspaces, green infrastructure and cultural venues. I am using this funding to challenge preconceptions about how regeneration takes place. I want to give all Londoners – regardless of background – the opportunity to be actively involved in their city and have more places to live, learn, work and play. The projects I announced funding for today will help us to tackle inequality, strengthen civil society, and ensure the benefits of regeneration are felt by all. Tackling the ‘injustice’ of pay inequality On 2 March, I stepped up the fight against pay inequality in the capital by publishing for the first time ever comprehensive data on the pay gap affecting Black, Asian and minority ethnic (BAME) employees for all organisations in the Greater London Authority (GLA) Group, making it among the first employers in the country to do so.
