Questions to the Mayor of London from the London Assembly

Question No: 2452 / 2010

Question to the Mayor from Navin Shah, AM

In response to my question 1519/2010, you stated “given the scale and complexity of the scheme, it is understandable that the Secretary of State requires more time to decide whether to call-in the application for his own determination”. Are you therefore presumably concerned that the new Secretary of State overturned the Article 14 Direction to Barnet Council within six weeks of taking up the post?


Answer from the Mayor

I am pleased with the Secretary of State’s decision.
