Following the election in May 2016, the Mayor of London commissioned the Greater London Authority to conduct a strategic review of the Old Oak and Park Royal Development Corporation, from June 2016 until October 2016. This review aimed to assess the strategic direction of the organisation and re-evaluate the programme of work.

As a result, a findings report was published containing a range of recommendations. Specifically, it focussed on the implications of the current Memorandum of Understanding for the transfer of publicly owned land to OPDC, which was originally agreed between the Corporation and the Secretary of State for Transport during the previous administration. It also reviewed the current OPDC Governance structure; advising changes to the composition of both the Board and Committees.

In response to this report, OPDC has developed an implementation plan which provides details on how the Corporation proposes to implement the recommendations, whilst also providing dates on when we aim for each to be achieved. This report was approved by the OPDC Board in May 2017 and can be found at the bottom of this page.

It is also envisaged that OPDC provide regular updates to each Board meeting from July onwards, reporting on the progress made and the outlook on delivering recommendations that are outstanding. In addition, the report will also undergo updates throughout the course of the delivery of this plan.
