There have been no applications from drivers in the City of London, although 11 people from outside the capital applied. All were rejected.
Some £3.2m of grants went to drivers in Hillingdon, where the Uxbridge and South Ruislip by-election was won by the Conservatives, after which Labour leader Sir Keir StarmerMost boroughs with the largest amounts awarded are in outer London: drivers in Bromley, Croydon, Ealing, Havering and Sutton have all claimed at least £2m.. Five Conservative-led councils had challenged the expansion.
Applications can take up to 20 working days, although TfL says it is expecting an increase on 21 August when eligibility widens to all Londoners. A TfL spokesperson said: "The total of the applications approved does not necessarily indicate the rejection of all others, as while the scheme is live there may be some applications awaiting final assessment/processing, including those that require the resubmission of corrected or missing documentation from applicants.
"It's not possible to say at this stage what percentage of applications are approved or rejected, but an evaluation report with a more detailed breakdown will be published following the closure of the scheme."Minibuses: £9,000*Small businesses are defined as those with fewer than 50 employeesSole traders and small trades with vans: £7,000 per vehicle Follow BBC London on
