The Greater London Authority: The Government's Final Proposals for Additional Powers and Responsibilities for the Mayor and Assembly
On 13 July 2006, Ruth Kelly, the Secretary of State for Communities and Local Government, announced a package of enhanced powers for the Greater London Authority - the Mayor of London and London Assembly. This package includes new lead roles for the Mayor on housing and adult skills in London; a strengthened role over planning in the capital; and additional strategic powers in a wide range of policy areas including waste, culture and sport, health, climate change and appointments to the boards of the functional bodies. The package also enhances the ability of the London Assembly to scrutinise the activities of the Mayor.
