There are questions over whether the mayor of London has been transparent enough over ULEZ data.
The UK Statistics Authority said Sadiq Khan's claim was "not supported by publicly available data"The mayor of London's claim that 90% of households in outer London meet Ultra Low Emission Zone standards is not supported by publicly available data, the UK Statistics Authority says.
The Office for Statistics Regulation , the independent regulatory arm of the UK Statistics Authority, looked at what Mr Khan has said about ULEZ after a complaint from Liberal Democrat MP for Twickenham Munira Wilson.She said Mr Khan's claim about how few households would be hit by ULEZ was "misleading."
"The statement made by the mayor relating to households in outer London is therefore not supported by publicly available data. Sir Robert said that this was "inconsistent" with "principles of intelligent transparency" and the Code of Practice for Statistics to which the mayor and TfL voluntarily subscribe.
