The joint authorities are made up of councillors nominated from the borough councils. They are funded by a Levy on the local authorities. The other boroughs — that is to say the City Of Westminster and the City Of London along with Bexley , Bromley , Croydon , Greenwich , Kingston , Lewisham , Merton , Southwark , Sutton and Tower Hamlets — are independent waste authorities in their own right. Prior to the abolition of the Greater London Council in 1986 , it was the waste authority for Greater London. The ODPM have recently proposed, as part of other transfers of powers to the Greater London Authority , to give it a waste function.
