When will the LLDC be on a more financially stable footing?

• Question by: Andrew Boff
• Meeting date: 02 November 2017

Andrew Boff AM: The Local Plan says the LLDC will exceed the London Plan’s target of 1,471 housing units per annum. Does that remain your aspiration?

• Question by: Gareth Bacon MP
• Meeting date: 02 November 2017

Gareth Bacon AM: Thank you, Chair. I will start by echoing something you said earlier on, David, and it was echoed by Sir Peter. As a regeneration project, it has to be acknowledged that it is successful. Compared to any other Olympic city in the past, what has happened in London is transformationally better than anywhere else. That said, of course, there are some caveats to that and the biggest running sore is the Stadium. I am going to go back over a couple of the points that have been covered by other Members, just to try to get more...

• Meeting date: 02 November 2017

Andrew Boff AM: How could something be described as ‘sustainable’ when London taxpayers will have to keep propping you up every year and you cannot tell us when that is going to stop? How is that sustainable?

• Meeting date: 06 February 2015

Could you set out the aims and objectives of the Draft Further Alterations to the London Plan document as laid before the Assembly, and how the Alterations address the issues raised by the Inspector and the Assembly and the changes to national policy?

• Question by: Steve O'Connell
• Meeting date: 06 February 2015

Steve O’Connell AM: First of all, I would like to thank you, Sir Edward, and your officers for the work involved in bringing forward these alterations. I note your continuing protection of the environment and green spaces and I am encouraged by your comments around self-build. I know my colleague Andrew [Boff AM] will turn to the housing question a little bit later. I would like to pick up on two points, one around parking standards and another around the first time that community pubs have been commented on in the London Plan. On the parking standards, I noticed that...

• Question by: Tony Arbour
• Meeting date: 06 February 2015

Tony Arbour AM: You will have heard already this morning that the principal concern of the Assembly relates to change of use, particularly change of employment use. One of the areas where the Assembly has actually right across the board sought to encourage the Mayor to be more muscular, even than his natural inclinations might have taken him, related to the [Sharon] Bowles [Member of the European Parliament for South East England] reforms, which have already been referred to, on the loss of office space. In your answer, you have talked about that and you have talked about the changes...

• Question by: Andrew Boff
• Meeting date: 06 February 2015

Andrew Boff AM: Sir Edward, in reaching a decision about whether or not plans work, we need data. We do not seem to have gathered data about how many family properties are being built above the second floor. Therefore, it is a little difficult then to monitor the performance of the London Plan’s housing targets with regard to what is, as far as I am concerned, a very important piece of information.

• Question by: Kit Malthouse
• Meeting date: 17 December 2014

Kit Malthouse AM: I just wanted to raise the issue of Wormwood Scrubs with you. You helpfully wrote to me yesterday ‑ following quite a lot of emails from alarmed residents of that area who have an interest in the Scrubs ‑ outlining the Mayor’s commitment to protecting it. However, could you just explain to us, if there are no designs on the Scrubs as such, why does it need to be included in the boundary of the MDC?

• Question by: Gareth Bacon MP
• Meeting date: 17 December 2014

Gareth Bacon AM: Just a quick word on representation. A number of Members have picked up the issue of transparency and representation on the board. You have made the, not unreasonable, point that it is a management board, not a local authority committee. Each borough will have one elected member, according to the Mayor’s consultation document. Could you reassure the Assembly that the boroughs concerned - although the Mayor will appoint them officially - will be free to nominate whoever they choose?
