Section 50: The Mayor’s culture strategy: consultation
125.Section 376 of the GLA Act 1999 requires the Mayor of London to prepare and publish a culture strategy. A draft of the strategy is to be prepared by the Cultural Strategy Group for London. The Mayor is also required to consult certain bodies in revising the Cultural Strategy (section 42), but not where he considers that the revision will not materially alter the strategy in question (section 42(6)).
126.This section amends section 376. As amended, that section will require:
the Cultural Strategy Group for London to consult the bodies listed in the new subsection (10) (see subsection (5) of section 50) when proposing revisions to the Cultural Strategy, and
the Cultural Strategy Group for London to consult these bodies when consulted by the Mayor if he makes revisions other than those proposed by the Group
The section also gives the Secretary of State a power to amend the list of bodies to be consulted.
