Len Duvall AM: Thank you, Chair. Talking of new year resolutions, will you resolve to continue to lobby the Government to provide proper funding for London rather than relying on increased council tax in order to support vital public services which are all facing unprecedented pressures?

Len Duvall AM: This year, you have managed to exceed your delivery targets on affordable housing despite the challenging economic climate. London is also building more council homes than the rest of the country. The Government, on the other hand, has missed its targets by several thousand. What do you intend to do in terms of the coming year? Is it more of the same or are you going to raise your game even further by exceeding those targets in the coming years if you are able to?

Andrew Boff AM (Chair): If we could stay on the clock. I raised this issue back with you in September [2023] and I would be grateful if you could write to me as soon as possible to indicate the communications that your office has had with the DfT to sort out this issue.

Len Duvall AM: In the list of successes and achievements in terms of what you have contributed to City Hall, there was a gap. You missed something out, which I thought was important - others may not think so because they would like to forget - when you protected Londoners and particularly those who were involved in the TfL/Government debacle when the Government tried to force you to include a Congestion Charge across all of London at a higher charge. You resisted it because you believed it was too high. Is that correct? But you also did something else, again...

Len Duvall AM: Mr Mayor, is it conceivable that Project 2030 is a number of projects and not just one singular project? You alluded to procurements. I do not know if you have that information. I would be happy to receive it in written form, but if you can speak to it now?
