As you will be aware, on 6 June 2012 the Mayor published consultation draft ‘Revised Early Minor Alterations to the London Plan’, which is aimed at ensuring the London Plan is fully consistent with the NPPF. My officers have reviewed your explanatory topic paper, and the associated appendices, and are content that it aligns with the minor alterations that the Mayor proposes for the London Plan, and represents a sensible and pragmatic response to the publication of the NPPF. The GLA’s view, expressed within the Mayor’s revised statement of general conformity dated 20 April 2011, and the subsequent statement of common ground between Haringey Council and the GLA, dated 31 May 2011, is that the Haringey Core Strategy is in general conformity with the London Plan. The Council’s proposed response to the publication of the NPPF is supported, and does not affect this view. Nevertheless, a number of detailed comments for your reference are provided within Appendix 1 which accompanies this letter. If you wish to discuss these comments, or any of the representations previously made by the Mayor, please contact Graham Clements ([email protected] / 020 7983 4265). Yours sincerely Direct telephone: 020 7983 4265 Fax: 020 7983 4057 Email: [email protected] Fiona Fletcher-Smith Executive Director of Development and Environment cc Joanne McCartney, London Assembly Constituency Member Nicky Gavron, Chair of London Assembly Planning and Housing Committee Ian McNally & John Pierce, DCLG Alex Williams, TfL - 2 - .

  • City Hall Rich List 2020
    City Hall Rich List 2020 Darwin Friend June 2020 Introduction Scrutinising staffing costs at local and national level is a hallmark of our mission to make government more accountable to taxpayers. This principle underpins our annual Town Hall Rich List, which details remuneration of the highest paid people across local government.1 It should also apply to municipal government. The Greater London Authority (GLA) is one of the biggest local authorities in the UK; it includes a number of well-known bodies and a powerful mayor. Sadiq Khan, the current mayor of London, has complained about financial woes, while the staffing costs of City Hall employees have risen by 82 per cent, from £36 million in 2016-17 to £65.5 million in the 2020-21 proposed budget.2 Meanwhile, the mayor has increased the band D council tax precept by just under nine per cent in 2019-20, and London taxpayers have gone from paying £295 in 2015-16 to £332 in 2020-21 for the GLA.3,4 The City Hall Rich List details the employees working for the Greater London Authority, Transport for London, London Fire Brigade and Metropolitan Police whose total remuneration exceeds £100,000. Key findings ▪ There were at least 654 people employed by the GLA and its subsidiary bodies in 2018-19 who received more than £100,000. Of these, 154 received over £150,000 in total remuneration. In 2015-16, 653 received more than £100,000 and 147 employees collected over £150,000. ▪ In 2018-19 the body with the highest number of employees with remuneration in excess of £100,000 was Transport for London, with 518 employees.

  • 1 8 March 2017 Deputy Mayor for London, Joanne Mccartney, Joins
    8 March 2017 Deputy Mayor for London, Joanne McCartney, joins Lambeth primary school children for a mesmerizing performance of Romeo and Juliet Download images of the Deputy Mayor’s visit here Deputy Mayor for London, Joanne McCartney, today joined children from Archbishop Sumner Primary School in Lambeth to experience the National Theatre’s latest production for primary schools. This spring, more than 12,000 young people will see the NT’s tour for younger audiences of Romeo and Juliet and Macbeth, with these productions visiting 27 schools across the capital and playing on stage at the National Theatre and Stratford Circus. The NT is continuing its commitment to touring live theatre to schools across London with its latest production of Romeo and Juliet. The production is a modern twist on Shakespeare’s classic love story set against a vibrant urban backdrop with excitement, colour, dancing and live song. A company of eight present a contemporary celebration of Shakespeare's masterpiece suitable for children aged 8 – 12yrs. Lisa Burger, Executive Director at the National Theatre said: “We believe that it is important for children and young people of all ages to have access to high quality, engaging theatre and we are committed to giving young people access to inspirational theatre and embedding the arts as a vital part of the curriculum. In 2017, we are offering young people across London the opportunity to see Shakespeare productions in their primary and secondary schools as we realise that for many teachers, it is often the logistics of bringing a whole year group to the theatre which can be the barrier to young people accessing world-class theatre.

  • Rail Devolution Business Case Narrative
    Submission to HM Government Date: 14 October 2016 Title: Rail devolution business case narrative 1 Summary 1.1 The purpose of this paper is to set out the case for further transfer of responsibility for the provision of some rail passenger services from the Department for Transport (DfT) to the Mayor and Transport for London (TfL). Significant improvement in the quality of services for passengers 1.2 Further devolution of inner suburban rail services within London will deliver significant economic, financial and customer benefits by 2020 through: More reliable and better services for passengers, delivered through a concession contracting model where the provider of train services focuses purely on reliability and customer satisfaction TfL’s proven ability to work with Network Rail sharing resources between them and London Underground Seamless and integrated fares, ticketing, branding and information for passengers across public transport services in London, which not only encourages more people to use public transport, but also reduces fare evasion A greater ability to plan and deliver the cost effective provision of public transport and associated projects across all local services, including buses, walking and cycling 1.3 Taken together, one impact will be to generate additional demand and revenue. On the recently devolved West Anglia services this has increased 27 per cent since devolution in May 2015. TfL expects an increase of 14 per cent in southeast London. The additional revenue can itself be re-invested in service enhancements 1.4 The package has a quantified benefit cost ratio of 4.3 : 1, based on railway passenger benefits, which shows that this offers high value for money.

  • Waste: Energy from Waste
    Holding the Mayor to account and investigating issues that matter to Londoners Environment Committee Waste: Energy from Waste February 2018 EMBARGOED UNTIL THURSDAY 15 FEBRUARY 2018, 06.00AM Key findings • Despite efforts to cut waste and increase recycling, more than half of London’s waste ends up being incinerated. The amount of waste sent for incineration (known as “Energy from Waste”) has more than doubled in the last decade, reaching nearly two million tonnes in 2017. • Burning waste takes materials out of the circular economy, releases carbon into the atmosphere and may have negative health effects. • But it also generates electricity, can provide heat for local homes and businesses, and reduces the amount of waste sent to landfill. • Energy from waste technology (EfW) is here to stay, at least in the medium term. • But while London has the EfW capacity to meet demand, it currently exports approximately over half a million tonnes of waste for incineration a year. • London needs to become self-sufficient in managing the waste it generates, reducing waste sent to EfW as population grows. • The Mayor intends to regulate London’s energy from waste sector by This report completes the London Assembly Environment Committee’s limiting its carbon emissions and maximising the energy benefits it can investigation into waste management. Previous reports in 2017 generate. considered the circular economy and household recycling and all three • London must begin to limit not only the amount but also the type of topics will be launched as a final report in spring 2018, with waste it sends to EfW.
