This report follows on from the Scrutiny of the 'Assembly' draft of the Mayor's Energy Strategy, and sets out the Committee's response to the more recent Public Consultation Draft of that Strategy. If its objectives are to be realised, a wide range of organisations from the public, private and voluntary sectors will need to work together. The report therefore focusses on the Mayor's proposals for a London Energy Partnership as the mechanism for delivering the Strategy, and makes detailed suggestions for the Partnership's development. In general the Committee welcomes the Mayor's approach, but calls on him to ensure that the Partnership:

• is able to make early progress on key practical objectives;
• is genuinely independent and adequately resourced;
• can lobby effectively for London's fair share of Government funding for renewable energy.
