Register of Mayoral decisions approving proposals for new or significant initiatives. The Mayor has pledged to uphold and develop the highest standards of transparency and openness in the way that he makes decisions and spends public money. The Mayor rather than GLA officers approves proposals for new or significant initiatives and those where expenditure will be over £50,000. These decisions are published on the GLA website in RTF and PDF format. The Datastore also makes summary information (as reported to the London Assembly) available in CSV format, which is accessible via the link below.

The GLA provides roll projections to 25 London boroughs, and has now produced pilot pan-London roll projections. These are supplemented by two sets of EXCEL files, reflecting conclusions in earlier Education Research Briefings and discussion with London boroughs. Taken together the EXCEL files include approximately 100 Tables, and provide a wide range of information on locally-resident children and on the schools they attend, wherever these may be. They cover issues such as age, gender, mother tongue, ethnicity, poverty, and SEN. A comparison of the data in the Tables with information held by London boroughs will indicate how far school intake mirrors the characteristics of the locally-resident pupil population at borough/county district level. Additionally, the longitudinal Tables provide indicators of inward mobility to individual boroughs and county countricts, as well as of the number of children of compulsory school age who 'go missing' from state schooling. 2008 Pupil Characteristics - Excel File (Zip file) [2006/07 Longitudinal Pupil Characteristics - Excel File](https://s3-eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/londondatastore-upload/longitudinal-pupil-characteristics-06-07.xls)

Since 2014 the GLA’s Regeneration Unit have been developing and delivering an innovative and pioneering new tool to support local investment in London’s communities: The Mayor’s Crowdfunding Programme. The initiative explores the potential for the GLA to pledge to civic crowdfunding projects as ‘one of the crowd’, enabling London’s citizens to deliver and manage spaces and places that suit local needs and identities. This study, commissioned by the Regeneration Unit and undertaken by the GLA’s Opinion Research team, attends to the ‘softer’ social impacts of regeneration interventions that can be easily overlooked in traditional evaluative research for policy. Significantly, the report deals only and entirely with non-financial benefits of civic crowdfunding, attending to a gap in research previously identified by Nesta (2015). Through a period of qualitative research, specifically semi-structured interviews and non-participant observation, with a sample of 7 project groups, insight and understanding has been gathered on the experiences of those who embark on delivering a project as part of the Mayor’s Crowdfunding Programme. Technical Details Results and findings are based on in depth qualitative research with 7 project groups funded in Rounds 1 or 2 of the Mayor’s Crowdfunding Programme. Research was undertaken on projects’ sites throughout May of 2016. All data collection was undertaken with the same template, by the same researcher. All data was thematically coded into one data-set. Participants were self-selecting, from the pool of funded projects. The research does not claim to speak for all project experiences, or experiences outside of the Mayor’s Crowdfunding Programme

Qualitative research and polling with Londoners undertaken by the GLA's Opinion Research team in 2019. The research explored in-depth Londoners’ perspectives of the public realm, to help inform the Mayor's Public London Charter. The research report covers: Experiences and uses of public spaces Views on privately-owned public spaces Views on the future of the public realm

The GLA strongly believes that Government needs to do more to unlock the power of data, helping organisations to make better decisions and operate more efficiently. Greater sharing of information between public authorities will allow them to improve the lives of citizens and help the economy flourish. To this end, in March 2016, the GLA launched the London City Data Strategy. The aim of this strategy is to give London the most dynamic and productive city data market in the world by reducing friction in the sharing and value-driven exploitation of city data to a minimum. The GLA seeks to recognise city data as part of the capital’s infrastructure, using it to save money, incubate innovation, and drive economic growth, helping London to achieve global renown for data impact. Within this Strategy, we have committed to - as a priority action - pushing for broad access to data across government departments e.g. HMRC and DWP) for London, to overcome issues which currently prevent further data sharing opportunities outside departmental silos and which stand in the way of value creation.

The GLA undertakes regular polling of Londoners' views. The results from these polls appear on this page, if interested in other years data click here.
