Krupesh Hirani AM: Thank you, Chair. The latest available figures show that as of June [2022], London’s National Health Service (NHS) had a record vacancy rate for fulltime staff exceeding 30,000 unfilled positions. I recognise that the Mayor does not have any statutory powers over the running of health and social care in London but there are still ways in which the GLA can support the sector, particularly around non-clinical and non-medical roles in the NHS, and social care as well. Deputy Mayor, what are you and the Mayor doing to support the health and social care sector in London?
