With the support of LDA funds, Central London Forward has commissioned consultancy support to undertake a sub-regional economic assessment for the whole of Central London.
The Local Democracy, Economic Development and Construction Act 2009 imposes a duty on all local authorities to carry out economic assessments for their economic market areas. The Act also encourages the participation of sub-regional organsiations where functional economic areas cross borough boundaries, as is the case with London's Cetnral Activities Zone (CAZ).
The Central London assessment provides a comprehensive economic narrative on the CAZ with chapters covering the city’s transport, people, job sectors, labour market and environment. The assessment also takes into consideration statutory guidance from the Department for Communities and Local Government and core economic indicators agreed with London Councils.
The Central London economic assessment chapters and supporting data tables can be downloaded below. The tables will be refreshed at periodic intervals to ensure the data is kept live.
