  • Incidence and Nature of Poverty in London (Supplementary) [2]

    • Question by: Angie Bray
    • Meeting date: 19 July 2006
    I appreciate that the widely used definition of the poverty line is 60% of the median income. How was that originally arrived at, and is that an absolutely fixed definition?

  • Incidence and Nature of Poverty in London (Supplementary) [15]

    • Question by: Angie Bray
    • Meeting date: 19 July 2006
    No, no, indeed, because I think that is an important point, because I think that in the mindset of the public it is confusing when you hear that x percent of people in London are technically living at or below the poverty line. I wondered if that definition would still be applicable if the median income rose considerably in London. One might feel that the definition was less, then, to do with poverty. I suppose I am asking you: are we talking about relative poverty as opposed to absolute poverty?

  • Role of Education, Training & Employment in Lifting People out of Poverty (Supplementary) [10]

  • Silverlink Metro Services (Supplementary) [7]

    • Question by: Angie Bray
    • Meeting date: 06 April 2005

  • Silverlink Metro Services (Supplementary) [9]

    • Question by: Angie Bray
    • Meeting date: 06 April 2005
    Staying on the subject of revenue from Congestion Charging - is not the problem for TfL that they foresee a huge drop in the amount of revenue from Congestion Charging as people learn to manoeuvre themselves through the rather Byzantine payment system, whereby you will be getting less penalty money? Is not the whole point of jacking it up from £5 to £8 actually to make a start on filling the deficit that TfL has actually prophesied itself?
