From the Greater London Authority website -
The London Assembly comprises 25 members, all elected at the same time as the Mayor. The London Assembly examines the Mayor's activities, questioning him about his decisions. The Assembly is also able to investigate other issues of importance to Londoners, publish its findings and recommendations, and make proposals to the Mayor.
So he may well get questioned but it does sound as though he ultimately makes the decisions!
