  • Key Challenges for the London Fire Brigade (Supplementary) [4]

    • Question by: Caroline Russell
    • Meeting date: 08 February 2018
    Caroline Russell AM: Commissioner, I wanted to say first of all how powerful it was to hear you speaking about the Firefighting Sexism campaign last week at the Young Women’s Trust event upstairs and how really shocking it was to hear about the very negative reaction from some people on Twitter to the suggestion that Fireman Sam might be renamed ‘Firefighter Sam’. That awful Twitter reaction shows just how much we still have to push for gender equality, as you said in your opening when talking about the importance of gender-neutral language and why your Firefighting Sexism campaign is so...
  • City Operations Programme (Supplementary) [7]

    • Question by: Darren Johnson
    • Meeting date: 20 July 2011
    On the London Live issue still, on the tickets for that, can you explain how that is going to work?
  • Housing Demand (Supplementary) [8]

    • Question by: Jenny Jones
    • Meeting date: 24 October 2007

I know that sales of social housing have fallen this year and there was actually an increase in the number of social housing, but it is always like a leaky pot, isn't it: as fast as you build the social housing there is the right to buy process, and so you are losing those houses? Doesn't the Mayor have any powers to remove the right to buy on new social building?

  • Flooding (Supplementary) [7]

    • Question by: Jenny Jones
    • Meeting date: 07 December 2005
    One of the methods that you could accommodate this flood risk is through the Green Grid. Now, I am not seeing any movement on this. I am not seeing the finance in place. I am not seeing, in any serious way, that you are actually going to put that in place.
  • Sustainable Management System (Supplementary) [1]

    • Question by: Darren Johnson
    • Meeting date: 08 September 2005
    Just on that point about the sustainability issues within the procurement document: will contracts be independently appraised before they are let, say, by the London Sustainable Development Commission (LSDC) or something like that?

    Would you support the idea of publicising a list of key promises made on the Olympics to help local people (and others) keep a track of progress on the delivery of these promises?
