Boris fails to answer Deputy’s question after nine months

November 26, 2012 by Martin Hoscik

The original question was asked by Victoria Borwick AM in February.
Boris Johnson has failed to answer an official question tabled nine months ago by his own Deputy Mayor.

In February Victoria Borwick, a Conservative member of the London Assembly and now Deputy Mayor of London, asked the Mayor a 5-part question on pedestrian-vehicle collisions.

The question has yet to be answered.

The Mayor has also failed to answer a question from Liberal Democrat Assembly Member Caroline Pidgeon in which she requested an explanation for the delay.

In a holding answer, Mr Johnson advised Ms Pidgeon: “Officers are drafting a response which will be sent shortly.”

The Assembly is currently investigating whether “organisational cultures” within the GLA are compatible with the Mayor’s promises of transparency and accountability.
