London Assembly AGM

There are two big meetings in my diary for today.

The first is the London Assembly AGM, this is where we elect the Assembly's Chair a Deputy Chair and the chairs of the various committees. Last year's meeting was a bit shambolic and as my first ever meeting as an Assembly Member left me distinctly underwhelmed. I hope this year's will be slicker.

The second meeting is of the Health & Public Services committee, we're looking into the preparations for swine flu. The concern over swine flu may well prove to have been unnecessary as the early indications from the USA look positive, but at some point we may have to deal with a more aggressive flu strain and I want to make sure we know what we're doing if we do.

You can watch both meetings on the live webcast.
