Tomorrow, London Assembly Members will question Mayor Sadiq Khan on the following topics and more:
- Brexit challenges for London
- The Met and honour-based violence
- Electoral fraud and malpractice in Tower Hamlets
- London-wide Ultra Low Emission Zone
The Assembly questions the Mayor, in public, ten times a year at Mayor’s Question Time (MQT) meetings, as part of its role of holding him to account. [2]
The Assembly acts as a check and balance on the activities of the Mayor.
The meeting will take place on Wednesday, March 22 from 10:00am in The Chamber at City Hall (The Queen’s Walk, London SE1).
Media and members of the public are invited to attend – numbers may be limited.
The meeting can also be viewed LIVE or later via webcast or YouTube
