Proceeding contribution from Baroness Andrews (Labour) in the House of Lords on Monday, 30 April 2007. It occurred during Debate on bill and Committee proceeding on Greater London Authority Bill.


Greater London Authority Bill

I cannot extrapolate from what I have said, because this will depend on the sort of scheme that the GLA chooses to establish. However, the precedent of the Scottish Parliament and the Welsh Assembly might be useful, as they have used the level of resettlement grant payment. The figure has been calculated as a percentage of annual salary determined by age and length of service. We have some parameters there. Clearly, the result will depend on whether the GLA chooses to do this, but I reiterate that we do not expect or want to see any increase in council tax.
