Mayoral strategies in London

Under the Greater London Authority Act 1999, the Mayor is required to publish seven statutory strategies, for transport, economic development, health inequalities, housing, spatial development, the environment and culture. The Mayor is also responsible for statutory plans for London’s police and fire services. This paper gives an overview of the existing Mayoral strategies, consultation requirements and the role of the London Assembly. It also provides information on a number of non-statutory strategies, visions and plans published by the Mayor or the GLA’s functional bodies.
