- 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?

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?
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?

- Meeting date: 16 January 2008
Therefore if you are looking at questions of the inner workings of organisations you might have funded in the past, you simply do not have the powers to investigate those to the extent that the allegations would suggest you might need to or might want to, or a third party might want to?

- Question by: John Biggs
- Meeting date: 16 January 2008
Just for the record, what formally are those roles that you fulfil, then? You are an accountant, I believe, but also you are the Financial Officer and that is defined in statute. Is that right?
Review process of LDA funding (Supplementary) [32]
- Question by: John Biggs
- Meeting date: 16 January 2008
I have a number of housekeeping questions: the first one, which I think follows very neatly from Peter Hulme Cross's intervention, is, can you confirm, Mr Travers, that you are a Statutory Officer and that you have trade and professional qualifications as well which require you to act with integrity and not to be nobbled by the Board or other officers of the LDA?

- Question by: John Biggs
- Meeting date: 16 January 2008
Can you confirm then that the report that was issued is substantially, other than maybe a few housekeeping issues that might have emerged, the one that was presented to the Board on the Friday morning? I believe that is the case.
Review process of LDA funding (Supplementary) [3]
- Question by: John Biggs
- Meeting date: 16 January 2008
I do not have any problem with the entirety. Just to clarify ' I think this has been clarified fairly well ' but the question of referrals to the police is because, when serious allegations are made ' and of course people making serious allegations have a serious responsibility to reflect on the seriousness of the allegations they are making ' the LDA is not a detective agency itself. You can confirm that it is not a detective agency?
