  • Question and Answer Session: COVID-19 Recovery - The Next Steps for London (Supplementary) [5]

    • Question by: Caroline Pidgeon
    • Meeting date: 04 March 2021
    Caroline Pidgeon MBE AM: My first question is for the Deputy Mayor for Culture. London has over 200 museums and 850 galleries and hosts three of the world’s top 10 galleries and museums. This rich offering is a huge draw to London for tourists from both here in the UK and abroad.

Mr Mayor, do you think it is right for the MPS to have a compulsory public register of interests, including membership of the freemasons?
