Government Office for London

Representing central government across the capital.

GOL represents central government across the capital, delivering policies and programmes for twelve central government departments and making London’s case in Whitehall.

The Government Office plays an important role in London, delivering the Government’s policies on areas including leading the negotiation of 33 Local Area Agreements, ensuring the delivery of the Every Child Matters agenda, and delivering policies on crime reduction, reducing drug misuse, planning and neighbourhood renewal. Our London Resilience Team, set up after the 9/11 attacks, is working to make sure London is prepared for any emergency.
