Hamwee was made a life peer in 1991 as Baroness Hamwee of Richmond upon Thames. She was a councillor in the London Borough Of Richmond Upon Thames from 1978 to 1998 . When the London Assembly was established in 2000, a written agreement with the Labour Party saw Sally Hamwee and Trevor Phillips agreeing to share responsibility for chairing the Assembly in its first term. Trevor Phillips took the Chair in 2000, passing it over to Sally Hamwee in May 2001. Trevor Phillips then chaired the Assembly from May 2002 to September 2002, but when Trevor Phillips stood down from the Assembly to take up chairmanship of the Commission For Racial Equality , Hamwee stepped in and chaired the Assembly until the June 2004 GLA elections. The results of those elections saw the Conservative Party and Liberal Democrats enter into a similar agreement as existed between Labour and Lib Dems previously. This agreement resulted in Sally Hamwee chairing the London Assembly between May 2005 and May 2006, and she is expected to chair the Assembly for the final year of this term from May 2007. Hamwee also chairs, or has chaired, the London Assembly's Budget Committee and Business Management and Appointments Committee. EXTERNAL LINKS
