 Greater London Authority - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Mayor proposes policy and the authority's budget, and makes appointments to the capital's strategic transport body (Transport for London) and economic development body (the London Development Agency).
The Assembly must also accept or amend the Mayor's budget on an annual basis.
In November 2005, the government published a consultation document reviewing the powers of the GLA, making proposals for additional powers, including waste management, planning, housing, and learning and skills.

 Parliamentary briefing - Greater London Authority - GLA
The GLA will have a budget of over £3 billion.
It is important that London's 7 million people "own" these reforms to their governance - the degree to which the GLA is open and accountable is therefore crucial.
The GLA will be driven by the Mayor who will be responsible for devising strategies, the budget, and co-ordination.

 Plans for Greater London Authority ignore growing social inequality
Amongst his major initiatives is support for tax-raising powers for the new authority, the extension of its mandate to health and further education, and the establishment by the new Police Authority of the type of "zero tolerance [of crime] regimes in operation in cities such as New York".
The Greater London Authority (GLA) Bill began its passage through parliament, with Deputy Prime Minister John Prescott describing it as a "recipe for world class government, for a world class city".
The central task of the GLA will be to preside over a regional development agency run in the interest of business.

 Case Studies - Greater London Authority
In order to provide a framework for London’s retail development, the GLA required an in-depth understanding of how consumer retail expenditure patterns are going to change between now and 2016.
This detailed analysis has enabled the Greater London Authority to better understand the required retail provision and the ability of each Borough to service its residents ongoing needs.
Drawing upon its established methodology for creating ‘small area’ expenditure projections (and incorporating the GLA’s on figures on population and macro-economic growth), CACI defined expenditure level for all 33 London Boroughs.

The Mayor of London, elected every four years by the supplementary vote system, will have a budget of some £3.3 billion but no special new tax-raising powers, and a staff of roughly 250.
The Secretary of State will have a reserve power to direct the GLA to amend its integrated transport strategy if it thinks it is necessary.

 The Greater London Authority
Chris Nortey the finance director and Antonn McCalla, a trustee and former chairman, both resigned because they disagreed with the new budgeting policy and financial management strategy that was proposed by the remaining trustees and the GLA and RBKC.
That they have run up debts to the bands of £200,000 will have been anticipated by the bureaucratic side, as the GLA and RBKC were by now totally in control of all carnival revenues.
There should be no new company to manage the Notting Hill Carnival until the GLA and RBKC have been brought to account.

She asserted support for massive shifts of space and spending in favour of the pedestrian and cyclist and explained that they could only be achieved through revolutionary changes in the way the country is governed.
Walking and cycling have historically been undervalued in London, yet with a fraction of the investment required for public transport improvements, they can offer a practical and extraordinarily cost-effective solution to the chaos we all face every day.
Brian Coleman, for the Conservatives was adamant that congestion charging and road closures were not appropriate remedies, while Helen Gordon (Labour) defended Mayoral hopeful Frank Dobsons freshly-announced policy of deferring a decision until beyond his first term as Mayor, and would not support efforts to reduce car ownership.
