The assembly is purely a scrutiny body. A bit like parliament.

Parliament can vote against a bill. Can the Assembly do anything like
that?

It can veto the Mayor's budget.

What if the Mayor doesn't stick to the budget?

He can only set a Council Tax precept and allow expenditure that has been
authorised by the budget.

Yes, but I was wondering what might happen if does not stick to the budget.
Has the Assembly or any other body any sanctions available?
