Fish Island Bridge

  • Reference: 2014/5008
  • Question by: Darren Johnson
  • Meeting date: 17 December 2014

  • Reference: 2014/5145
  • Question by: Gareth Bacon MP
  • Meeting date: 17 December 2014
The Mayor has no doubt seen my latest report that suggests that 1 in 5 council-run markets will close within 18 years. Does he agree with us that London's markets are an extremely valuable asset to Londoners that should be protected?
