  • LEZ (2)

    • Reference: 2008/2767
    • Question by: John Biggs
    • Meeting date: 17 December 2008
    Many voluntary and charitable organisations operate with older minibus type vehicles and from October 2010 will have to comply with the LEZ regulations by modifying or renewing their vehicles. For reasons of financial hardship, some may not be able to do so and this could have an adverse affect on the community they work with. Will the Mayor consider extending the deadline for compliance and/or making available some grant funding?
