London mayor Boris Johnson was this week due to set in motion the process of setting up a quango to deliver the regeneration of east London after the 2012 Olympics. Johnson was due to convene the London Olympic Park Regeneration Steering Group on Wednesday. It will comprise a panel of ministers and local authority leaders who have the task of deciding whether to approve proposals. Sources close to the London Development Agency (LDA), which is overseeing the Olympic legacy, say that, if approved, the consultation could begin by the end of the month. The body would be a successor to the Olympic Delivery Authority (ODA).
