  • Dissolution of LFEPA (Supplementary) [1]

    • Question by: Fiona Twycross
    • Meeting date: 02 December 2015
    Fiona Twycross AM: I wanted to correct the impression that was given that the way it has been operating at the moment has been simply about opposition Members [on LFEPA] getting at the Mayor. The fact is that the Mayor has insisted on managing by Direction even when there has not been an impasse, including on issues over which there has been cross‑party agreement by LFEPA Members. I just wondered if you could focus a little bit on what impact the Mayor’s insistence on management by Direction has had. To be honest, we have had Directions on all sorts of...
  • Dissolution of LFEPA (Supplementary) [2]

    • Question by: Richard Tracey
    • Meeting date: 02 December 2015
    Richard Tracey AM: Chairman, probably this is one for you as the politician of the two of you. The fact is, surely, that government, particularly local government, has been changing very considerably over recent years. That is accepted. The straight point to you: is it not correct that perhaps LFEPA in its current form is out of date and past its sell‑by date, really?
  • New Technology (Supplementary) [4]

    • Question by: Fiona Twycross
    • Meeting date: 02 December 2015
    Fiona Twycross AM: We obviously have to make sensible use of resources in the face of cuts. Some of the new technology that could come online is really interesting and will offer exciting possibilities, but do you agree with the Londoner who contacted me yesterday to say that £283,000 for a website rebuild is bordering on scandalous?
  • Evacuation plans (Supplementary) [2]

    • Question by: Lynne Featherstone
    • Meeting date: 08 December 2004
    What age have they reached - not infancy?
  • Evacuation plans (Supplementary) [3]

    • Question by: Lynne Featherstone
    • Meeting date: 08 December 2004
    I did not know London's topography changed that often. You said it is quite likely in a catastrophic incident that the advice will be to stay indoors, basically, but how will you manage a spontaneous, fear-led mass exodus, when people panic? What have you got in place for that?
  • Evacuation plans (Supplementary) [4]

    • Question by: Lynne Featherstone
    • Meeting date: 08 December 2004
    How would that information be made available to Londoners ' with road, rail, Tube closures so that you avoid that kind of human panic? If transport is running at any point, how are they going to receive those'?
  • Evacuation plans (Supplementary) [5]

    • Question by: Lynne Featherstone
    • Meeting date: 08 December 2004
    Has, for example, something like a register of all the private coach operators in London been established? Has that all happened already?
  • Evacuation plans (Supplementary) [6]

    • Question by: Lynne Featherstone
    • Meeting date: 08 December 2004
    Right, so that is about 10 years old.
  • Evacuation plans (Supplementary) [7]

    • Question by: Darren Johnson
    • Meeting date: 08 December 2004
    Just following up on the points about spontaneous evacuation, as opposed to the formal evacuation plans, and if the plans to guide and inform people and all the rest of it did not work, could people expect formal restrictions on their movement in the event of a severe incident?
  • Evacuation plans (Supplementary) [9]

    • Question by: Valerie Shawcross
    • Meeting date: 08 December 2004
    Would you agree that the BTP, CCTV systems, and communications systems on the Underground are actually an important part of protection, as well as evacuation plans?
