• Question by: Caroline Russell
• Meeting date: 01 July 2021

Caroline Russell AM: I want to put my question to Daniel Bridge, the Programme Director for the Royal Docks team. City Airport sits in the heart of the Royal Docks Enterprise Zone. What impact is it having on the health of people already living in the area, and are you doing any work to address this?

• Question by: Zack Polanski
• Meeting date: 01 July 2021

Zack Polanski AM: My question is also for Daniel. I am speaking to you from the Chamber at City Hall, which is on one of the more notorious public‑private spaces, More London, and we are shortly going to be moving to The Crystal. My first question is: who actually owns the land that The Crystal is on? Is it one of the GLA’s pocket strategic development sites? Is it owned by the developer Advanced Business Park? Is it someone else entirely?

• Meeting date: 05 March 2020

Keith Prince AM: First of all, Mr Mayor, thank you for attending the Haven House event last week. It was very gracious of you to come along to that. Continuing on black cabs, one of the big issues of course is around The Knowledge and the massive drops we have seen in the number of black cab drivers doing The Knowledge. I have actually seen advertising for people to do The Knowledge, which is something I have never seen before. What can we do about that, Mr Mayor? What plan do you have to do about it?

• Meeting date: 05 March 2020

Susan Hall AM: Mr Mayor, there is real growing local support and a very positive campaign from the splendid Elliot Colburn MP [for Carshalton and Wallington]. Will you start to seriously consider the extension of the Overground from West Croydon to Sutton?

• Question by: Lord Bailey of Paddington
• Meeting date: 05 March 2020

Shaun Bailey AM: Mr Mayor, on 7 February [2020] 97% of Unite bus drivers voted to strike over fatigue and safety. A week later, you announced that bus drivers would receive an extra £34 million in bonuses. How many more trade unions can expect this kind of hush money?

• Question by: Caroline Pidgeon
• Meeting date: 05 March 2020

Caroline Pidgeon MBE AM: Mr Mayor, in terms of going further, let us look at the ULEZ. The first phase came in in April last year. It has been a huge success and I really welcome its extension in October 2021, but I do have some questions about how the wider zone is going to operate. Firstly, it is going to go up to but not include the North and South Circular. I am wondering, will you consider revising the border to include the North and South Circulars?

• Question by: Leonie Cooper
• Meeting date: 05 March 2020

Léonie Cooper AM: One of the issues that is filling my postbag is from people on my side of the river who are struggling with the replacement bus services, which they say are just not frequent enough, particularly in the rush hour peaks. I wondered if there was any likelihood of bus frequency being improved because it is quite clear from your answer to Assembly Member [Tony] Devenish that we are talking about something that is going to longer rather than shorter, which is pretty much as anticipated. Is there anything you can do for my constituents?

• Question by: Jennette Arnold OBE
• Meeting date: 05 March 2020

Jennette Arnold OBE AM: Firstly, can I just add my congratulations to TfL staff and management for what I would call the transport revolution that has taken place across our city in the last 20 years? I say that based on the knowledge of the first transport goals and aims that were set out by the first Labour Mayor and having been able to be in a position in my constituency, with all the infrastructure development that my constituents have received, to see that 20-year strategy being delivered. Commissioner, that is the high point. I want now to raise some...

• Question by: Susan Hall
• Meeting date: 05 March 2020

Susan Hall AM: First of all, bravo for those questions. Thank you very much, Assembly Member Arnold, for that. I am sure the Mayor is as surprised as I am - for once we will share an emotion - that the Assembly Member for Harrow and Brent did not even mention the wretched Metropolitan line, which has been a complete disaster for the last year. We have had nothing but trouble being turfed off trains and so on. Mr Mayor, I will ask you: are you happy with the service that -- Tony Arbour AM (Deputy Chairman): Hang on, Assembly...
