Assembly questions for next London Plan
The London Assembly Planning and Regeneration Committee put questions on ‘Towards the next the London Plan’ on 9th June 2025 to two sets of guests.

Comments by London Forum’s members on what was said are welcome, as there are likely to be variations across London on the points made by the representatives of organisations questioned by the committee.
