"Plans to set up a mayoral development corporation (MDC) to deliver nearly 25,000 homes around the site of a vast High Speed 2 and Crossrail 'super hub' station in west London have taken a step forward after London Assembly members opted against using their powers to block the proposals.

"London mayor Boris Johnson has powers to designate any area of land in Greater London as a mayoral development area for the purposes of setting up an MDC.

"At the final stage of the process, the London Assembly is given the opportunity to reject the proposed designation, with a two-thirds majority required.

"At an extraordinary plenary meeting of the assembly, assembly members opted not to block the proposals, although Labour members passed a motion setting out concerns over the plans."
