    • Reference: 2018/0231
    • Question by: Tom Copley
    • Meeting date: 18 January 2018
    How will the Mayor's 'No one needs to sleep rough in London' campaign and new London Homeless Charities Group contribute to reducing homelessness in the capital?
  • Vision for Old Oak Common (Supplementary) [5]

    • Question by: Tom Copley
    • Meeting date: 07 September 2017
    Tom Copley AM: Thank you very much, Chair. I wanted to ask you about the levels of affordable housing and specifically the London Affordable [Living] Rent which is the Mayor’s new form of tenure that is going to be benchmarked at social rent levels. Are you going to have a target specifically for London Affordable Rent across the OPDC site?
  • South West Trains

    • Reference: 2015/4359
    • Question by: Richard Tracey
    • Meeting date: 16 December 2015
    With South West Trains' operating contract ending in July 2017, what work is TfL doing to maximise the chances of it taking control of South West London's commuter rail network?
  • Local Government Asset Sales

    • Reference: 2015/2220
    • Question by: Tom Copley
    • Meeting date: 15 July 2015
    Given the Government's proposals to force London's local authorities to sell high value assets, do you think the revenue generated should be hypothecated for building homes in the capital?
  • Compensation for train delays and cancellations

    • Reference: 2015/1961
    • Question by: Richard Tracey
    • Meeting date: 17 June 2015
    Last week it was revealed that there were over 3,000 train journeys where Londoners could have claimed compensation because their train was late or cancelled. But only 15% of people who could claim actually did. Do you think that train operators and TfL should do more to promote the fact that commuters can receive compensation for late or cancelled journeys?
  • Housing supply

    • Reference: 2015/0112
    • Question by: Tom Copley
    • Meeting date: 21 January 2015
    In your Housing Strategy you outline that you "would like to see new arrangements for prudential borrowing for new housing so that it is not counted as Government debt, which would distinguish it from more mainstream public borrowing, along the lines that apply in much of the rest of Europe". What progress have you made in lobbying the government to implement this change?
  • London Development Agency Funding of Organisations

    • Reference: 2008/0006
    • Question by: Sally Hamwee
    • Meeting date: 16 January 2008
    A number of times the phrase is used that you found 'no evidence'. It is difficult to ask you to prove a negative but I think it would be helpful to have assurances about the thoroughness of the review. Could you tell me about what interviews and discussions there were with staff, with representatives from the projects and so on?
  • Review process of LDA funding

    • Reference: 2008/0007
    • Question by: Tony Arbour
    • Meeting date: 16 January 2008
    Yes. I would like to know exactly how you carried out your investigation; for example, did you interview the whistleblower, Brenda Stern, as to the allegations which she made and which were repeated in the Evening Standard?
  • Review process of LDA funding (Supplementary) [12]

    • Question by: Bob Neill
    • Meeting date: 16 January 2008
    Understood. Then, quite separately, as you also point out in your report, there is a separate police investigation into the Green Badge Taxi School which you are cooperating with?
  • Review process of LDA funding (Supplementary) [13]

    • Question by: Bob Neill
    • Meeting date: 16 January 2008
    Yes, thank you very much, so that is an internal review. Your conclusions in the report, which I have read and which were submitted to the LDA Board, really put it in these terms, do they not, as Mike Tuffrey has said; in a nutshell, of the six you concentrated on, four require further work, three of those specifically involve the police and we do not know whether Brixton Base will involve the police or not because it is too early to say yet; you need to do further work. Is that a fair conclusion?
