Historique
The City of London was unique in evolving Common Hall as a separate electoral assembly for the choice of important municipal officers, including the Lord Mayor. At one time all freemen were entitled to attend but now only liverymen of the City Livery Companies or Guilds are present and only those liverymen of more than one year's standing are entitled to vote. No specific date can be supplied for the establishment of Common Hall, although its existence can be traced back to at least the 13th century. In 2008 Common Hall continues to meet on a regular basis.
The Livery Consultative Committee was formed to promote better communication between the Livery Companies and the City and to find a method of increasing the involvement of Liverymen in City affairs, with the hope of thus increasing the general welfare of the City.
