Proceeding contribution from Baroness Hanham (Conservative) in the House of Lords on Monday, 14 May 2007. It occurred during Debate on bill and Committee proceeding on Greater London Authority Bill.


Greater London Authority Bill

I have no particular brief for the Government Office for London, but I become upset when the GLA is considered to be a regional body. It is not. We have had endless discussions about this. It is a unique animal. It is neither local government nor a regional body; it is the Mayor for London and the GLA. Some aspects of what the government office does could probably be brought under the aegis of the Greater London Authority, but not under its aegis as a regional body.
