  • London Recovery Board and London Transition Board (Supplementary) [5]

    • Question by: Susan Hall
    • Meeting date: 02 July 2020
    Susan Hall AM: My questions really have to be to Fiona and David Bellamy because I would like to ask about the Mayor in particular. What role does he have on the London Transition Board other than to chair it periodically? Which one of you would like to answer me?
  • London Living Wage

    • Reference: 2015/3322
    • Question by: Fiona Twycross
    • Meeting date: 21 October 2015
    Given the changes to tax credits that are due to take effect in April 2016, will the new rate of the London Living Wage take into account next year's benefit changes for working people?
  • Net addition to social housing stock

    • Reference: 2015/1668

    • Meeting date: 17 June 2015
    What net addition to the social housing stock in London should you be making each year?
  • Transport for London Business Plan (Supplementary) [2]

    • Question by: John Biggs
    • Meeting date: 23 May 2012
    Darren Johnson (Deputy Chair): Assembly Member Biggs has a point of order. John Biggs (AM): The Chair told us there was a standing order about making assertions for which there was no evidence. Now, the Mayor has at the one time made an assertion for which he has evidence that he can cut council tax. Now he has made another assertion that on fares, he can make no such commitment. There is a fundamental inconsistency, it seems to me, under standing orders. Either one can be said and the other cannot, and either the both can be said or neither...
  • Approving and Planning Foreign Travel (Supplementary) [1]

    • Question by: Mike Tuffrey
    • Meeting date: 14 March 2007
    Is not the truth here that there is no planning? This has mushroomed completely out of control. Until we started asking questions you and the Mayor did not know the volume of it. We are told that since we started asking questions he in particular has been amazed at the volume of travelling going on.
  • Approving and Planning Foreign Travel (Supplementary) [2]

    • Question by: Bob Blackman
    • Meeting date: 14 March 2007
    One final question. Studying your documents there do not seem to be a vast number of trips being planned, for example, to other Commonwealth countries, with which Britain already has very good relations but could be improved. Is there a particular reason why that is the case?
  • Approving and Planning Foreign Travel (Supplementary) [3]

    • Question by: Mike Tuffrey
    • Meeting date: 14 March 2007
    That is not the point I am raising.
  • Approving and Planning Foreign Travel (Supplementary) [4]

    • Question by: Bob Blackman
    • Meeting date: 14 March 2007
    One of the considerations might be that we have had very clear ones to Cuba, Venezuela etc, which do not strike us as being those areas which would be immediately promoting London as such an important international city. Clearly, that is a priority. Why?
  • Approving and Planning Foreign Travel (Supplementary) [5]

    • Question by: Mike Tuffrey
    • Meeting date: 14 March 2007
    What is behind it is I do not believe there is actually any monitoring and tracking.
  • Approving and Planning Foreign Travel (Supplementary) [6]

    • Question by: Roger Evans
    • Meeting date: 14 March 2007
    It is just that you are making comments to us like, `It is good to go to New York because tourists spend a huge amount of money in London'. The implication is if the Mayor did not go to New York the tourists would not come to London. What actual value is that adding?
