  • 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 Recovery Board and London Transition Board (Supplementary) [7]

    • Question by: Tony Devenish
    • Meeting date: 02 July 2020
    Tony Devenish AM: I have two questions, the first one for Mr Bellamy. Good morning, David. Yesterday TfL put out a press release where it boasted that there is an extra 19,000m 2 of space in central London for cycling and walking that has been created over the last few weeks, ie I presume there is 19,000m 2 roughly less road space. I am glad you mentioned the point of Saturday and the good news that the pubs are opening on Saturday. Do you worry, as some people have said to me, that Saturday will be a tipping point, where...

  • London Recovery Board and London Transition Board (Supplementary) [8]

    • Question by: Lord Bailey of Paddington
    • Meeting date: 02 July 2020
    Shaun Bailey AM: Can I address my question to John Barradell, please. Good morning, John. It is great to see you. Earlier on you talked about everybody being worried about a second outbreak, and of course that is correct, but what constitutes an outbreak? Is there a pre-planned level where something clicks in? Is it based around R rate? Is it based around fatalities? Does that level exist in the mind of the Committee?

  • London Recovery Board and London Transition Board (Supplementary) [19]

    • Question by: Keith Prince
    • Meeting date: 02 July 2020
    Keith Prince AM: Thank you, Chair. May I add my thanks to all the members of the panel for all the work that they are doing across London and helping Londoners. My question is for Mr Bellamy. I am sure you are aware, Mr Bellamy, that across London there are around 5,000 people being put up in the hotels by different partners at the moment, many hundreds of whom are rough sleepers. Will you work with me and a number of other organisations that I am working with across London to provide the accommodation and support services needed for those...

  • Taking forward the recommendations

    • Reference: 2013/0011-1
    • Question by: Gareth Bacon MP
    • Meeting date: 05 June 2013
    What should the next steps be for taking forward the recommendations of the London Finance Commission's report?

  • Capital Investment (Supplementary) [2]

    • Question by: Richard Tracey
    • Meeting date: 05 June 2013
    Richard Tracey (AM): Tony, in your report you do talk to quite a great extent about Crossrail and we will all remember very much the length of the process to get funding, to get the whole process through. Now we are beginning to talk about Crossrail 2, which is very important in my constituency and in southwest London. To what extent do you believe the suggestions you have made would help to produce Crossrail 2 much sooner than is currently anticipated?

  • Capital Investment (Supplementary) [3]

    • Question by: Andrew Boff
    • Meeting date: 05 June 2013
    Andrew Boff (AM): I think, Professor Travers, when Assembly Member [Tom] Copley talks about a growing consensus on housing, he is talking about a growing consensus in the Labour Party on housing, and that, as you so rightly pointed out, there is a difference between a policy that subsidises houses irrespective of the needs of the people who live in them, and the policy that we favour of helping people when they need it. But that was not what I was going to ask. I really wondered whether or not you had reference to the European Charter of Local Self-Government...

  • Capital Investment (Supplementary) [5]

    • Question by: Kit Malthouse
    • Meeting date: 05 June 2013
    Kit Malthouse (AM): Professor, it is very interesting, what you have been saying this morning. Obviously the restrictions on borrowing by local authorities were loosened in 2003. I hesitate to be political about it, but the strict introductions that were introduced in the 1980s were in response to irresponsible borrowing by a number of local authorities, not least Liverpool and Hammersmith and Fulham, interestingly, and also I think the interest rate swap debacle where Hammersmith and Fulham lost the case on their treasury management and got into all sorts of trouble. The reason that the Government introduced those restrictions back...

  • Taking forward the recommendations (Supplementary) [1]

    • Question by: Andrew Boff
    • Meeting date: 05 June 2013
    Andrew Boff (AM): I do hate it, Professor Travers, when you come here because you answer all my questions before I have asked them. But do you think the Mayor is missing a trick in just lobbying for London when he should actually be lobbying for cities? It strikes me that the 'carrot crunchers' have their lobby groups and unfortunately the cities do not seem to have a cohesive one.
