With the imminent introduction of the Zero-Emission Capable Taxis (available for purchase from the end of 2017) when will Londoners see noticeable results in reducing pollution from Black Cabs?

  • Question by: Siân Berry
  • Meeting date: 14 September 2017
In response to my question 2017/2101 you stated that "The GLA does not share individual-level information relating to rough sleeping with the Home Office."
