Zack Polanski, leader of the Green Party, is cleared following an ethics inquiry by the Greater London Authority (GLA) into complaints that he did not pay council tax while living on a houseboat in London. The GLA monitoring officer investigates allegations after two complaints are submitted. The inquiry focuses on whether Polanski breached the code of conduct for London Assembly members. In a published report, the monitoring officer finds that the specific circumstances of Polanski’s living arrangements fall outside the scope of the code of conduct, and therefore concludes he did not breach it. The reports also say Polanski set out his position in a witness statement. He explains that he believed council tax responsibilities were handled through payments for mooring fees that he makes regularly for the boat. The outlets report that political figures from multiple parties raised the issue, framing it as an ethics code matter, but the GLA inquiry results do not find a code breach.
