What is a call-in
The Mayor of London has the power to ‘call-in’ an application for their own determination. This means that the Mayor of London will now be responsible for deciding upon the application, instead of Westminster City Council, which resolved to refuse the application in January 2025. More information on the Mayoral Planning Process is available on our Mayoral planning powers page.
Planning application journey so far
Since the application was validated by Westminster City Council in May 2024, as the Local Planning Authority for this planning application, it has consulted local people on the application. The below table summarises the key dates of the application, with links to further information about each step.
Public hearing
The Mayor will hold a Public Hearing (usually at City Hall) before making a decision.
At the hearing, the Mayor will be provided with a detailed update on the proposals from the GLA case officer. The Mayor will then hear views from the Council, in this case Westminster City Council, the Applicant for the scheme and any objectors or supporters who register to speak at the Hearing. The Mayor will then retire to make a decision to grant or refuse the application, usually returning within about an hour or so to announce the decision. The Mayor can defer the decision for 5 working days - where the decision will be announced online here on this page.
Anyone who commented on the application, will receive an email/letter from us at least 21 days in advance of the Hearing and will be provided with details on the Hearing along with the opportunity to register to speak at the Hearing should they wish to do so.
We will also publicise the Hearing here online along with site notices at City Hall and near to the site.
