ULEZ/PAY PER MILE

Motion on behalf of the Conservative Group and the East Havering Residents Group

This Council condemns the Mayor of London for expanding ULEZ to Havering and the Council opposes any roll-out of Pay Per Mile by TFL. The Council recognises that these schemes will harm the lowest earners, small businesses, and charities.

The Council calls on the Mayor to scrap ULEZ in Havering and to invest in public transport and active travel infrastructure across Havering.

This Council instructs the Leader to write again to the Mayor of London, informing him of the Council’s opposition to both ULEZ and Pay Per Mile.

This Council will commit to supporting its vulnerable residents in applying for ULEZ exemptions and scrappage, and will instigate the removal of all ULEZ related signage on Havering Council property and land (where legally permissible).

Amendment on behalf of the Havering Residents Association Group and Labour Group

This Council opposed the introduction of ULEZ back in July 2022

This Council calls upon the Mayor of London to stop the expansion of ULEZ into outer London Boroughs and opposes any roll-out of Pay Per Mile by TFL. This Council recognises that these schemes will harm those on the lowest incomes, the workforce, small businesses, and the very charities our residents rely on.

This Council calls on the Mayor to implement the more effective proposals that we have put forward to invest in public transport and active travel infrastructure across Havering giving residents a real choice between travelling by car or another form of transport.

This Council will commit to supporting its vulnerable residents in applying for ULEZ exemptions and scrappage. We will remove all illegal signage on Havering Council property and land.

Following debate, the amendment on behalf of the Havering Residents Association Group and the Labour Group was AGREED by 27 votes to 17 with 0 abstentions (see division 1) and AGREED as the substantive motion, without division.
