Environment Reports
July 2022 | Shaun Bailey AM
This report firmly says NO to the proposed ULEZ expansion and explains why expanding the Ultra-Low Emission Zone and seeking to introduce London-wide road pricing would be damaging mistakes. It also takes a look at vehicle usage in London to consider other more sustainable possibilities.
The Race To Net Zero
December 2021 | Tony Devenish AM
This report has highlighted the fantastic work other regional mayors are doing in terms of training people in green skills, investment in zero emission vehicles manufacturing and the development of alternative renewable energy sources. It shows far from just talking the talk on environmental policy, it is other regional mayors who are walking the walk such as Ben Houchen with the hydrogen hub in Tees Valley and Andy Street supporting Coventry to be the first city in the country to have a zero emission bus fleet.

September 2018 | Susan Hall AM
This report sets out the problem of fly-tipping in London including the scale, costs, types of waste and the behaviours that lead to the illegal dumping of waste.

Cleaning Up London

Clearing The Air: A More Targeted Approach To Tackling London's Pollution Problem
January 2017 | Gareth Bacon AM
This report will assess Sadiq Khan's proposals, making clear their benefits and disadvantages. It will set out an alternative ‘ULEZ Plus’ approach, combining the central London ULEZ that had been planned by the previous Mayoral administration with a raft of additional measures that are better targeted at London’s pollution hotspots. This wouldmake up an ambitious but deliverable programme to radically improve London’s air quality that would be quicker to implement, cheaper for the taxpayer and more effective for Londoners than Mayor Khan’s plans.
