  • 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?

    • Meeting date: 10 February 2016
    Jennette Arnold OBE AM (Chair): We go to item 10 which is Minor Alterations to the London Plan (MALP). [---] Before we move to the questions can I invite Sir Edward to make a short opening statement?
  • Chairman's Question to Guests (Supplementary) [1]

    • Question by: Jennette Arnold OBE
    • Meeting date: 10 February 2016
    Jennette Arnold OBE AM (Chair): Could you set out the aims and objectives of the draft MALPs document as laid out before the Assembly? How will the alterations address the issues raised by the Assembly and the implications for the London Plan of changes to national policy? You can indicate whether you have touched on some aspects of that and we will then be able to make the link.

  • Chairman's Question to Guests (Supplementary) [3]

    • Question by: Navin Shah
    • Meeting date: 10 February 2016
    Navin Shah AM: My question is about the zero carbon homes. When the MALP was first proposed it included new text which outlined how the Mayor was going to achieve zero carbon homes. This has now been removed from the final version. Has the Mayor given up on zero carbon homes entirely?
  • Chairman's Question to Guests (Supplementary) [5]

    • Question by: Nicky Gavron
    • Meeting date: 10 February 2016
    Nicky Gavron AM: I want to talk about the parking standards in areas of outer London. One of the most worrying aspects of the minor alterations is the Mayor’s decision to introduce minimum car parking standards. Minimum car parking standards were abolished by the government of the day 22 years ago and they are not part of the national policy. Developers seem to have to impose them whether they believe in them or not. We are just beginning to see coming forward now really innovative forms of car-free, low carbon developments. A lot of Londoners coming to live in these...
