  • 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?

  • Review process of LDA funding (Supplementary) [10]

    • Question by: Valerie Shawcross
    • Meeting date: 16 January 2008
    Will you just confirm, for the record, that I passed on a casework complaint to you, Manny, in 2005 regarding the Green Badge Taxi School and we had a considerable amount of correspondence; and that as a result there was an external audit commissioned of the organisation and the grant that was given? In response to that, you called in external legal advice and you sent a copy of that to me finally in April 2007, and at that time I felt that you had dealt with the complaint as thoroughly as could be done at the time.

  • Legacy Master plan for the Olympic Park (Supplementary) [4]

    • Question by: Jennette Arnold OBE
    • Meeting date: 10 November 2007
    I have a couple of questions and I will start with Manny [Lewis]. You spoke about having achieved over 800 training courses to date in construction. Are you monitoring in terms of diversity ethnicity and location? If you are, can you share that information so that we can be assured that the contract that you have made with the local community and with Londoners that they will be accessing these jobs, especially in the construction industry, is being fulfilled? Second, can you tell me any more about the construction site which I have been championing to get established within Leyton...

  • Legacy Master plan for the Olympic Park (Supplementary) [10]

    • Question by: Murad Qureshi
    • Meeting date: 10 November 2007
    Just thinking beyond the Olympics and who actually manages the Olympic Park, I think that is very critical for the legacy for a number of reasons. It will have state of the art sporting facilities, a park, waterways and I do hope it will still be democratically responsive to Londoners. I wondered if you have got any views from all three organisations, given that our colleagues from the local authorities have already expressed their views to some extent when I last raised this issue when they were here?

  • Priorities for the Coming Year (Supplementary) [1]

    • Question by: Murad Qureshi
    • Meeting date: 10 November 2007
    OK, and just to add to the confusion, I think the Government Office for London have got a role in there somewhere.

  • Priorities for the Coming Year (Supplementary) [4]

    • Question by: Murad Qureshi
    • Meeting date: 10 November 2007
    I dare say your specialism is larger capital programmes. Youth services is the softer end; it is kind of more social, community type outputs. I am just not totally convinced you have got a track record in that. How are you going to buy into that sector and who are you going to be working with?
