The Chamber at London City Hall
The meeting will take place in the Chamber at City Hall.
Mayor Boris Johnson will appear before members of the London Assembly on Wednesday for the penultimate Mayor’s Question Time session of 2013.

Assembly Members will use the session to ask the Mayor a series of priority questions on housing, fares, Transport for London grants to local councils and the use of benefit sanctions.

They will also table questions requiring a written answer, including on the cost of flights and cars used by senior Metropolitan Police officers, a recent report by the House of Commons Communities and Local Government Committee recommending more powers for the Assembly and low take-up of contactless fares on the bus network.

A full list of questions can be downloaded from the Assembly website.

The meeting takes place 10am Wednesday 20 November 2013 at the Chamber, City Hall and is open to public. A live webcast of the meeting will also be available.
