  • Capital Investment (Supplementary) [2]

    • Question by: Richard Tracey
    • Meeting date: 05 June 2013
    Richard Tracey (AM): Tony, in your report you do talk to quite a great extent about Crossrail and we will all remember very much the length of the process to get funding, to get the whole process through.

It would be a bit shameful if we could not reopen it before Rio has completely finished its Olympics.

    • Meeting date: 24 October 2012
    Tony, you have already spelt out some of the complexities of trying to bring something like this in and you have discussed whether it would simply be London or whether it would apply to the rest of the country, but surely one of the other enormous unfairnesses of it would be at what level and percentage it came in and indeed who qualified. Liberal Democrat politicians have been talking about a mansion tax applying over £1 million or £2 million, which seems very unfair, but surely the really serious unfairness of this would be if young people trying to get...
