  • London Recovery Board and London Transition Board

    • Reference: 2020/2097
    • Question by: Navin Shah
    • Meeting date: 02 July 2020
    What are the main challenges for London government as it emerges and recovers from the impact of COVID-19?
  • London Recovery Board and London Transition Board (Supplementary) [11]

    • Question by: Leonie Cooper
    • Meeting date: 02 July 2020
    Léonie Cooper AM: My first question is to David Bellamy and it is about the balance between lives and livelihoods. Many politicians and commentators have portrayed the journey out of lockdown as a trade-off between the economy and health and between lives and livelihoods. Do you agree that this is a false distinction and that there cannot really be a full economic recovery without the public being confident that going about daily life is safe?
  • London Recovery Board and London Transition Board (Supplementary) [13]

    • Question by: Unmesh Desai
    • Meeting date: 02 July 2020
    Unmesh Desai AM: Chair, my questions are to Mr David Bellamy. Mr Bellamy, in your opening statement you said that inequalities have been laid bare by this crisis. You also said we cannot go back to how things were and that this is no time for cuts. You talked about the wider financial climate and some tough decisions that have to be made. In moving forward, we heard about the work of the London Recovery Board and the London Transition Board, but ordinary Londoners out there can be forgiven for thinking there are just yet more quangos and more bureaucratic...
  • London Recovery Board and London Transition Board (Supplementary) [14]

    • Question by: Alison Moore
    • Meeting date: 02 July 2020
    Dr Alison Moore AM: Thank you very much, Chair. My question is for Niran Mothada. London’s transport system is critical to the functioning of the city, as we all know. How will your Board marry up the impact that COVID-19 is having on transport, both its finances and how Londoners will move about in the future, with individual and business needs so that London remains open?
  • London Recovery Board and London Transition Board (Supplementary) [17]

    • Question by: Joanne McCartney
    • Meeting date: 02 July 2020
    Joanne McCartney AM: My question is to Niran. Looking forward at economic recovery, do you think there is a balance between jobs, in terms of the amount of jobs and job security we can offer, and making sure that companies offer good terms and conditions? Is that something that the Recovery Board has at the forefront of its mind?
  • Budget Commitments to Green Group (Supplementary) [6]

    • Question by: John Biggs
    • Meeting date: 13 December 2006
    Given that both the Conservative Party and the Liberal Democrat Party only want to build half a Thames Gateway bridge I think it is quite reasonable there should be a lively discussion on the issue! I think in both cases they like the northern part, but not the southern part. That is politics for you! Would you agree that you are the greenest Local Authority Leader in the country and that green voters should celebrate the fact that they have voted for you in the past and should think hard before supporting another candidate in the future?
  • Climate Change (Supplementary) [1]

    • Question by: Nicky Gavron
    • Meeting date: 06 December 2006
    Do you mind if I just come in because a mitigating fund is not the same as a revolving loan fund?
  • Capacity Enhancement Projects (Supplementary) [14]

    • Question by: Murad Qureshi
    • Meeting date: 06 December 2006
    Peter, it was very timely, that the vision of TfL, that the Transport 2025 came out before Sir Rod Eddington's report. Some of the difficulties Tony [Arbour] is having about understanding the funding are answered in the Report; the suggestion that the cash moves from the rural rail lines to the commuter rail lines, that we extend the road pricing nationally. Can we expect TfL to be picking up some of the proceeds of those changes in funding priorities nationally?
  • Mayor's Report (Supplementary) [2]

    • Question by: Valerie Shawcross
    • Meeting date: 15 November 2006
    I have a letter here in my hand from the Leader of Camden Council who is speaking on behalf of Liberal Democratic/Conservative Partnership Administration, and that is what he says in his letter. I am happy to share that with you although I am really in a state of despair about what has happened here. Would you agree that one of the things that made the Croydon Tram Link Scheme happen was that the Conservatives on Croydon Council supported this project all the way through 15 years, up until it happened? That was one of the critical success factors in...
  • Mayor's Report (Supplementary) [15]

    • Question by: Valerie Shawcross
    • Meeting date: 15 November 2006
    Thank you, Mayor. While the Conservatives on the Assembly were getting very excited and hyperventilating about your trip to Cuba, the Conservatives now involved in the administration of Camden Council were busily undermining the Cross River Tram.
