    • Question by: Jennette Arnold OBE
    • Meeting date: 19 July 2012
    Chair, it is just a quick question, and it goes back I think to where Steve [O'Connell] started. Commissioner, what I just wanted to raise with you was, as well as the Olympics, and I welcome the assurances that you have given from where you are at the moment, it is summer time, even though it is so wet out there, and during this time there would normally be contingency plans for events that happen, certainly in some boroughs that I am familiar with, over that summer period. You would normally, I know in the boroughs I represent, they would...
  • Olympics Security

    • Reference: 2012/0041-2
    • Question by: Len Duvall OBE
    • Meeting date: 19 July 2012
    A question to the Commissioner. Just earlier on, and I apologise for arriving late, but I heard you, in terms of you answering the questions on the milestones. I want to take you back to the Olympic security issue. Of course in July when they indicated they could not fulfil the contract, that is quite a clear milestone. You mentioned before in the autumn of 2011 the jump from 3,000 odd to 10,000.
  • Privitisation

    • Reference: 2012/0043-2
    • Question by: Len Duvall OBE
    • Meeting date: 19 July 2012

  • Private Developers / Conflict of Interests

    • Reference: 2001/0074-1
    • Question by: Valerie Shawcross
    • Meeting date: 11 July 2001
    Developers, such as major retailers, will not always share the aspirations set out in the London Plan - particularly when these conflict with their own interests. How will you seek to influence private developers into sharing your agenda? I was very pleased to go to one of your meetings with the Southern boroughs and there was a lot of enthusiasm. It is almost sad to the extent that boroughs are obviously keen for assistance and advice in getting their master plans of projects on but it seems to me that one of the key things that needs to be done...
