The GLA has identified a number of core themes, around which all elements of our consultation<br />
exercise are being focused. We would very much welcome your responses on these issues.<br />
You should not feel constrained by these ten themes, however it would be very helpful to us if you<br />
could focus your responses around these key areas of concerns. Please note that all responses to<br />
the consultation must be returned by 4 December 2000.<br />
