MQT Answer: Economic Recovery Action Plan
Economic Recovery Action Plan
Question No: 2549 / 2012
Andrew Dismore
Why have you not created a new Economic Recovery Action Plan, given we have been in recession for the past 3 quarters?
Written response from the Mayor
I was elected on my pledge to create 200,000 jobs over the next fours years, for which my officers have developed a robust plan to help support the economic recovery of London.
I am also pleased to see that London has seen a 0.7 percentage point fall in the unemployment rate this quarter, now nearly 1 percentage points lower than a year ago.
