How will the Mayor's 'No one needs to sleep rough in London' campaign and new London Homeless Charities Group contribute to reducing homelessness in the capital?
Caroline Pidgeon MBE AM: Thank you. I have three specific questions I would like to ask you. To fulfil your vision, your modelling shows you are going to need a nursery in place by 2020 and another two years later. I am pleased you have made progress on this in your work. We are rapidly approaching 2018 now. Are you confident the funding is going to be in place and that they will be completed on time?
Tom Copley AM: Thank you very much, Chair. I wanted to ask you about the levels of affordable housing and specifically the London Affordable [Living] Rent which is the Mayor’s new form of tenure that is going to be benchmarked at social rent levels. Are you going to have a target specifically for London Affordable Rent across the OPDC site?
How can the public be assured that the LLDC has achieved value for money given the level of public investment in its operations and investments to date?
Are you satisfied that you are seizing this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to provide community-led housing and cycling infrastructure on the Olympic Park?
Cycle Superhighway 2 stops well over a mile short of the Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park. Has the LLDC made an assessment of the extent to which visitor numbers to the park could be boosted if a proper segregated cycle lane between central London and the park were built?
