London
is constituted by 33 boroughs. The boroughs run most of the day-to-day
services across the capital. They are responsible for education,
housing, social services, street cleaning, waste disposal, roads,
local planning and many arts and leisure services.
Association
of London Government. The ALG represents all 32 London boroughs,
the Corporation of London, the Metropolitan Police Authority and
the London Fire and Emergency Planning Authority, which all pay
an annual subscription to cover the Association’s running
costs. The ALG is consulted formally by the Government and is
in an ideal position to advise on a wide range of issues relating
to local government and other matters of concern to Londoners.
It also works closely with the national Local Government Association
and with many private, voluntary and public sector bodies.
The
work of the Association of London Government (ALG) is now covered
by London Councils. Their role is to fight for more resources
for London and for a fairer deal for London's 33 councils. www.londoncouncils.gov.uk
