Agenda item

In response to a question concerning the policing of the bridges raised by a Member at the previous meeting, the Committee received a legal opinion from the Remembrancer.

The opinion concluded that the position, in respect of Tower Bridge and the Millennium Bridge, might be distinguished from other City bridges as, for those two bridges, the City, as Trustee, had an ability to fund as distinct from an obligation to fund in reference of the other bridges. The Commissioner confirmed next steps and undertook to bring a report detailing the business requirement to the next Committee

RESOLVED – That the update be noted.
