  • Question and Answer Session: Legacy of the 2012 London Olympic Games and Paralympic Games (Supplementary) [17]

    • Question by: Emma Best
    • Meeting date: 06 October 2022
    Emma Best AM: Thank you, Chair. My colleague just briefly brought up the London Youth Games there and I wanted to quickly confirm, hopefully, from either Lyn or Jules whether, with young children being able to use the Olympic Stadium and facilities over the last ten years, that legacy will continue and they will continue to use those facilities over the next ten years and beyond.

    • Question by: Sakina Sheikh
    • Meeting date: 06 October 2022
    Sakina Sheikh AM: Thank you, Chair. Good afternoon to the panel; it is great to have you join us here today to discuss the legacy of the London Olympic Games and the Paralympic Games. You are absolutely right, Jules [Pipe CBE], about needing to assess this on a regional, local, and national scale in terms of what we have achieved. But I am going to be zoning in to the local a little bit. I wanted to start with you, Lyn, about asking has the Olympic Park met the regeneration commitments for the host boroughs? Then I might move on...
  • Question and Answer Session: Legacy of the 2012 London Olympic Games and Paralympic Games (Supplementary) [2]

    • Question by: Caroline Pidgeon
    • Meeting date: 06 October 2022
    Caroline Pidgeon MBE AM: Thank you very much indeed. I am going to ask my first question to the Deputy Mayor, given your contribution at the start, because section 1.4 of the original bid document promised these four great legacies: sport, community, environment and economy. I really want to try to focus on sport today. Let us look at the Olympic Stadium. The legacy for sport really centred around the Stadium itself. The bid document, if you look at it, promised conversion to a 25,000-seat multipurpose venue with athletics at its core. It will become a house of sport with...

  • Key Challenges for the London Fire Brigade (Supplementary) [1]

    • Question by: Andrew Dismore
    • Meeting date: 08 February 2018
    Andrew Dismore AM: Thank you, Chair. Could I congratulate you both, the Commissioner on her reappointment, I guess, and Fiona on her forthcoming appointment as Deputy Mayor [for Fire and Resilience]? I am sure - and I know - both of you will do excellent work in those roles. Could I ask Fiona? After the Government refused to provide extra funding for the Brigade post Grenfell either for the extra equipment needed or for the running costs of the Brigade, we would all agree that the Mayor’s decision to step in and provide extra funding for the Brigade and sharing...
  • Key Challenges for the London Fire Brigade (Supplementary) [2]

    • Question by: Susan Hall
    • Meeting date: 08 February 2018
    Susan Hall AM: Thank you. Good morning, both. Fiona, massive congratulations to you. In your opening statement, you said that we are very proud of the Brigade and of course we are, and we were very happy on this side that Mayor Khan decided to do three different reports to see how well the service was doing, given the closure of the stations. Of course, it came out that the LFB was in a very good place and so we were very happy about that. When will you publish the new corporate governance arrangements prior to the abolition of the...

    • Question by: Tom Copley
    • Meeting date: 08 February 2018
    Tom Copley AM: Thank you, Chair. Good morning and congratulations to you both. My question is on high-rise building inspections. What progress is being made post the Grenfell Tower fire to ensure the safety of tall buildings in London, including not just council-owned and social housing but also privately-owned housing blocks and non-housing public and commercial buildings?
  • 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...
