  • 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?

  • Subject: 3rd Runway Mitigation (Supplementary) [1]

    • Question by: Tom Copley
    • Meeting date: 08 September 2015
    Tom Copley AM: Sir Howard, good morning. We are very supportive of the idea of an independent aviation noise authority. In December 2013, your interim report called on the Government to establish such a body. When has it said it will do so?

  • Subject: 3rd Runway Mitigation (Supplementary) [2]

    • Question by: Len Duvall OBE
    • Meeting date: 08 September 2015
    Len Duvall AM: Thank you for your earlier clarification around where air quality fits into the hierarchy of mitigation issues, but could you just clarify in terms of your report and your findings? Is it that pollution levels must come down around Heathrow before it is even built or could you envisage it being built and then taking pollution levels? Others would argue that some of your findings around air quality, comparisons and issues are slightly unrealistic. Give us the background of that.

  • Meagre benefits from a third runway (Supplementary) [3]

    • Question by: John Biggs
    • Meeting date: 08 September 2015
    Mayor John Biggs AM: I would like to be in a position to apologise for some fellow Members of the Assembly. I will start by thanking you enormously for the work you have done and for the very thorough way in which you answered the question you were asked, while recognising that there is a significant minority of people who believe it was the wrong question and that there are quite a lot of other people who seek elected office - and maybe occasionally I am a bit like this - and who would like to pretend that the desire...

  • Meagre benefits from a third runway (Supplementary) [4]

    • Question by: Joanne McCartney
    • Meeting date: 08 September 2015
    Joanne McCartney AM: Can we move to issues raised in chapter 7, the economic impacts assessment, and in particular the PricewaterhouseCoopers (PwC) report into the wider economic benefits of Heathrow? I understand that you put the PwC report out to your expert panel to do a peer review and it came back. If I can quote from its report, it said, “We counsel caution in attaching significant weight either to the absolute or relative results of the ... PwC report”, and stated that the methodology used was “unique or at least very unusual”. Yet your final report quotes extensively from...

  • Independent Aviation Noise Authority

    • Reference: 2014/2280
    • Question by: Valerie Shawcross
    • Meeting date: 18 June 2014
    The Commission has proposed the creation of an “Independent Aviation Noise Authority”. Can you outline what noise issues you believe the Authority should address?
