  • London Recovery Board and London Transition Board

    • Reference: 2020/2097
    • Question by: Navin Shah
    • Meeting date: 02 July 2020
    What are the main challenges for London government as it emerges and recovers from the impact of COVID-19?

  • London Recovery Board and London Transition Board (Supplementary) [11]

    • Question by: Leonie Cooper
    • Meeting date: 02 July 2020
    Léonie Cooper AM: My first question is to David Bellamy and it is about the balance between lives and livelihoods. Many politicians and commentators have portrayed the journey out of lockdown as a trade-off between the economy and health and between lives and livelihoods. Do you agree that this is a false distinction and that there cannot really be a full economic recovery without the public being confident that going about daily life is safe?

  • London Recovery Board and London Transition Board (Supplementary) [13]

    • Question by: Unmesh Desai
    • Meeting date: 02 July 2020
    Unmesh Desai AM: Chair, my questions are to Mr David Bellamy. Mr Bellamy, in your opening statement you said that inequalities have been laid bare by this crisis. You also said we cannot go back to how things were and that this is no time for cuts. You talked about the wider financial climate and some tough decisions that have to be made. In moving forward, we heard about the work of the London Recovery Board and the London Transition Board, but ordinary Londoners out there can be forgiven for thinking there are just yet more quangos and more bureaucratic...

  • London Recovery Board and London Transition Board (Supplementary) [14]

    • Question by: Alison Moore
    • Meeting date: 02 July 2020
    Dr Alison Moore AM: Thank you very much, Chair. My question is for Niran Mothada. London’s transport system is critical to the functioning of the city, as we all know. How will your Board marry up the impact that COVID-19 is having on transport, both its finances and how Londoners will move about in the future, with individual and business needs so that London remains open?

  • London Recovery Board and London Transition Board (Supplementary) [17]

    • Question by: Joanne McCartney
    • Meeting date: 02 July 2020
    Joanne McCartney AM: My question is to Niran. Looking forward at economic recovery, do you think there is a balance between jobs, in terms of the amount of jobs and job security we can offer, and making sure that companies offer good terms and conditions? Is that something that the Recovery Board has at the forefront of its mind?

  • Question and Answer Session: London Development Agency Settlement (Supplementary) [3]

    • Question by: Joanne McCartney
    • Meeting date: 16 March 2011
    Do you expect those strands to be fully funded as originally envisaged or will there have to be some cutbacks?

  • Question and Answer Session: London Development Agency Settlement (Supplementary) [4]

    • Question by: John Biggs
    • Meeting date: 16 March 2011
    Yes, Chair. I am impressed the Mayor has created another functional body: Bacon for London! I have three areas of questioning - very briefly. The first is you are trying to clutch some sort of victory out of the jaws of defeat, I would suggest. The Government effectively abolished both the budgets and the entities of the Regional Development Agencies (RDAs) last year, while accepting that City Hall is going to have some economic regeneration capacity. I pay tribute to you personally because I know you have been scrambling in the background to try to persuade it that it made...

    • Question by: Joanne McCartney
    • Meeting date: 16 March 2011
    You mentioned the youth priorities would be one of the things the Mayor could inform us about next week. This afternoon some Members of this Assembly are meeting to update ourselves on the Time for Action strands. We do know from the information we have to date that a lot of those programmes have been put on hold because of the concern about funding --

  • Question and Answer Session: Mayoral Development Corporation (Supplementary) [3]

    • Question by: John Biggs
    • Meeting date: 16 March 2011
    Thank you, Chair. Cruel fate has dictated that I lead on this as well! I am very grateful for your opening comments. Can you tell us what progress you have made in your discussions with the boroughs in particular on how they might be affected, particularly on the planning powers?
