13 hours agoFormer north London mayor 'sorry' for trying to get visas for his family and friends
I would like to offer my sincere apology to the council for the conduct in relation to the invitation letters to attend council programs. I recognise that the actions did not meet the standards expected of an elected member and may have affected confidence in the council. I have already written to the governance team requesting that they provide a date for me to undertake the Code of Conduct training, and I look forward to completing it at the earliest opportunity. I remain committed to ensuring that my future conduct reflects the responsibilities and expectations of public office. While I accept the findings of the committee and comply fully with its decision, I will be raising some separate concerns about aspects of the process through the appropriate channels.
