  • Vision for Old Oak Common (Supplementary) [1]

    • Question by: Caroline Russell
    • Meeting date: 07 September 2017
    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?
  • Tackling congestion in London

    • Reference: 2017/2836
    • Question by: Caroline Pidgeon
    • Meeting date: 13 July 2017
    Why does your draft Transport Strategy contain no proposals to change the Congestion Charge or bring in road pricing to tackle congestion?
  • Utilising Capacity at Airports in the South East.

    • Reference: 2015/2494
    • Question by: Caroline Pidgeon
    • Meeting date: 08 September 2015
    Given the extensive political opposition to a third runway at Heathrow and the inevitable legal and planning challenges that will arise it is almost certain expansion is unlikely to happen in the foreseeable future at Heathrow. In light of these realities do you believe sufficient attention has been given to improving surface transport to ensure that the significant spare air capacity at existing airports in the south east is fully utilised.
  • Devolution of rail services

    • Reference: 2015/1238
    • Question by: Caroline Pidgeon
    • Meeting date: 21 May 2015
    What discussions have you had with the Department for Transport on the further devolution of suburban rail services to Transport for London?
  • Priorities for the Coming Year (Supplementary) [5]

    • Question by: Murad Qureshi
    • Meeting date: 10 November 2007
    Just going on from John's [Biggs] friendly question, you outlined many, many priorities for next year and, if anything, the first observation is maybe there are too many. Can you possibly lose focus as a result and what kind of managerial systems have you got to make sure that you can cover all the ground? For example, the two additional ones that I had were implementing the Mayor's Housing Strategy and the sporting provision and the youth service. Now those are clearly new areas on top of your Olympic responsibilities, as well as the climate change work.
  • London City Airport (Supplementary) [5]

    • Question by: Geoff Pope
    • Meeting date: 10 November 2007
    Can you say anything about the timescale of this application?
  • Catastrophic Incident Preparations (Supplementary) [1]

    • Question by: Jennette Arnold OBE
    • Meeting date: 08 December 2004
    I wonder if you might just draw down a little bit and say is your planning based on a sector response. Listening to you, yes, you have all this equipment, but we are just used to seeing fire engines moving from A to B. How would you respond to a sector? Are you saying that you have enough equipment and resources within a given sector, and so that that would, in itself, support a catastrophic incident in that sector?
  • Catastrophic Incident Preparations (Supplementary) [2]

    • Question by: Jennette Arnold OBE
    • Meeting date: 08 December 2004
    A lot of your learning came about after 9/11. Have you been around the table with your New York colleagues recently? I am just trying to get a sense of whether the equipment we have bought since 9/11 is really state-of-the-art. Is that something for the next two years, or should we be finding ways of working with people from Spain, New York, more so, because clearly, things move on in other worlds?
  • Catastrophic Incident Preparations (Supplementary) [3]

    • Question by: Jennette Arnold OBE
    • Meeting date: 08 December 2004
    Last night in my constituency there was a major meeting because of concerns of movement of ordinary engines. What can you say to Londoners today in terms of your readiness from your service and working in collaboration with colleagues. Are you ready?
  • Orisis Exercise (Supplementary) [1]

    • Question by: Jennette Arnold OBE
    • Meeting date: 08 December 2004
    Surely you have learnt from that exercise and tested, and what did you use at that exercise, because you are saying ' in answer to question 363/2004 ' you are waiting for more equipment. What is happening now?
