Resolved: to refer the Committee’s views to Mayor and Cabinet, as follows –

However, the Committee asks that officers are clear about the definitions they use for affordable housing in future reports.

 

·         The Committee notes that the bid document for the New Bermondsey housing zone only became available to Members after Mayor and Cabinet in February 2017.

Pending the outcome of the inquiry, the Committee may decide to scrutinise any substantial issues that are not covered in the inquiry report.
