When London's budget is decided

The budget sets what the city spends and how much property tax goes up. These are the dates it is released, discussed and voted on, and how you can take part. Free for everyone.

London is in the last year of its 2024 to 2027 Multi-Year Budget. The City says the last year of a multi-year budget is subject to reconfirmation by the new term of Mayor and Council, and the budget is re-adopted each year through an annual budget update. London's mayor has strong-mayor powers: the Mayor prepares the budget by February 1, Council has 30 days to amend, the Mayor has 10 days to veto, and Council can override a veto by two-thirds vote.
