City of London (Markets) Bill: To consider the Bill
Committee hears from witnesses
A select or joint committee is taking oral evidence on the City of London (Markets) Bill, which will reform the governance and operation of markets within the City of London's jurisdiction. The bill addresses how historic market functions—including Smithfield, Billingsgate, and other trading venues—are managed and regulated, with implications for market traders, the City of London Corporation, and the broader London economy.
The City of London's markets are major economic assets and employment hubs for London. Changes to their governance, regulation, or operational frameworks affect thousands of traders, logistics operators, and food-supply chains across the capital. The bill's passage will reshape how these markets function in a modern economy.
