The Assembly was established in 2000 and is headquartered at City Hall on the South Bank of the River Thames, close to Tower Bridge. The Assembly is also able to investigate other issues of importance to Londoners (transport, environmental matters, etc.), publish its findings and recommendations, and make proposals to the Mayor. ==Assembly Members== The Assembly comprises 25 members elected using the Additional Member System of proportional representation. Elections take place every four years – at the same time as for the Mayor. There are 14 constituencies each electing one member, with a further 11 members elected from a party list to make the total members from each party proportional to the votes cast for that party across the whole of London using modified D'Hondt. A party must win at least 5% of the party list vote in order to win any seats. Members of the Assembly have the post-nominal title 'AM'. The annual salary for a London Assembly member is approximately £55,000.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=London Assembly Members )〕 Since its creation in 2000, twelve assembly members have subsequently been elected to the House of Commons: David Lammy, Meg Hillier and Diana Johnson for Labour; Andrew Pelling, Bob Neill, Angie Bray, Bob Blackman, Eric Ollerenshaw, Victoria Borwick, James Cleverly and Kit Malthouse for the Conservatives; and Lynne Featherstone for the Liberal Democrats. In addition, Val Shawcross, Assembly Member for Lambeth and Southwark was selected, but unsuccessful, as the Labour parliamentary candidate for the constituency of Bermondsey and Old Southwark. Andrew Dismore and Richard Tracey are both former MPs who were later elected to the assembly. One assembly member – John Biggs, AM for City and East – became the directly-elected Mayor of Tower Hamlets in 2015. He is currently serving as both Mayor and AM. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「London Assembly」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
