This followed consultation with HM Treasury and with the Greater London Authority.</p> answering member constituency Scarborough and Whitby answering member printed Mr Robert Goodwill question first answered 25/02/2016 16:25:23 answering member 1562 label Biography information for Sir Robert Goodwill
