  • How are you seeking to transform the London Fire Brigade so that it is well equipped to keep Londoners safe in the future? LFB Transformation Delivery Plan (Supplement) [1]

    • Question by: Sakina Sheikh
    • Meeting date: 10 February 2022
    Sakina Sheikh AM: Good morning, Fiona and Andy, it is great to have you join us. It is so important that you have both already mentioned the Grenfell tragedy, a nightmare for many, but a reality for the residents who are still waiting for justice. It is a pertinent conversation to frame the rest of the discussion today about building safety. I wanted to start off by asking you, Fiona, specifically, what fire safety measures have been introduced into the planning system and how are they improving safety for Londoners?

  • How are you seeking to transform the London Fire Brigade so that it is well equipped to keep Londoners safe in the future? (Supplement) [4]

    • Question by: Len Duvall OBE
    • Meeting date: 10 February 2022
    In terms of the challenges faced by the LFB in the future, severe weather is having an impact, and in terms of flooding in particular, does the LFB have the equipment it needs and the right level of resource to respond to flooding in London now and in the future?

  • How are you seeking to transform the London Fire Brigade so that it is well equipped to keep Londoners safe in the future? Building Safety and Remediation (Supplement) [5]

    • Question by: Sem Moema
    • Meeting date: 10 February 2022
    Sem Moema AM: Thank you, Chair, I will do my best. I am really pleased to see the work that the LFB does with local authorities and civil servants. I have seen your work helping Hackney identify buildings at risk and to put in place those mitigations. The Grenfell incident had a huge impact and has really changed the way in which the LFB has had to work. I just wonder that, following [the Rt Hon] Michael Gove’s [MP, Secretary of State for Levelling Up, Housing and Communities] on building safety and remediation around levelling up, how you think that...

  • How are you seeking to transform the London Fire Brigade so that it is well equipped to keep Londoners safe in the future? London's Preparedness for a Terrorist Attack (Supplement) [6]

    • Question by: Unmesh Desai
    • Meeting date: 10 February 2022
    Deputy Mayor, how do you anticipate the refreshed review by Lord [Toby] Harris into London’s preparedness for a terrorist attack will impact upon the work of the LFB?

  • Addressing inequalities in Coronavirus response (Supplementary) [1]

    • Question by: Susan Hall
    • Meeting date: 10 June 2021
    Susan Hall AM: This is addressed to the Mayor. Good morning. Do you think your Health in All Policies approach was successful when implementing your Street Space schemes across London?

  • Addressing inequalities in Coronavirus response (Supplementary) [3]

    • Question by: Zack Polanski
    • Meeting date: 10 June 2021
    Zack Polanski AM: My question is for you, Mr Mayor, and then I will come to the Fire Commissioner. You spoke with Assembly Member Sheikh before about TfL and inequality. I want to ask you, though, about the LFB. What role does it have in tackling inequality in London? Would it be better for it to have a clear inequalities strategy?

  • Addressing vulnerabilities in the GLA and Functional Bodies (Supplementary) [7]

    • Question by: Susan Hall
    • Meeting date: 10 June 2021
    Susan Hall AM: A very quick one, please, for Andy Roe. Her Majesty's Inspectorate of Constabulary, Fire and Rescue Services (HMICFRS) has identified several areas for improvement and I will talk to you at length about those another time. One, though, is providing practical training exercises at high-rise buildings for incident commanders and so on. You have mentioned 8,000 high-rise buildings in London. Can you tell me, have you at least sorted out that particular issue that the HMICFRS were concerned about?

  • 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?

  • 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?

  • Balance of Taxation (Supplementary) [2]

    • Question by: Stephen Knight
    • Meeting date: 24 October 2012
    Stephen Knight (AM): To pick you up on the point you have just made around the high property values in London, compared, I believe with most other developed countries, we have very few property and wealth taxes in this country; we predominantly focus on income and sales taxes. I just wondered to what extent you think the high cost of housing in London is partly driven by the fact that it is a tax free growth area for people, by which I mean it is a tax free investment and therefore that has partly driven the speculation that has driven...
