    • Question by: Bob Blackman
    • Meeting date: 10 November 2007
    There is only one single bidder now for the Aquatics Centre. Have you got any concerns about that process and does that place the project in any jeopardy?

  • Housing Demand (Supplementary) [7]

    • Question by: Bob Blackman
    • Meeting date: 24 October 2007
    So why have you set such a low limit? Why not 25% or 30%?

    Finally, what are you going to do about the still considerable number of empty properties that are not brought onto the housing market at all?

  • Housing Demand (Supplementary) [17]

    • Question by: Bob Blackman
    • Meeting date: 24 October 2007
    The key is that when those properties come available, there is a queue a mile long to acquire them. So, there is clearly a need for more of those types of properties.

  • Housing Demand (Supplementary) [25]

    • Question by: Bob Blackman
    • Meeting date: 24 October 2007
    Two quick areas I would just like to raise: how are you going to address the need for new affordable housing for families when we have already got a surplus of one bedroom properties at affordable level, and a large element of the developments that have taken place have been two bedroom properties? In actual fact the demand now in London is very much for family housing, both for affordable housing for rent but also housing that can be bought by families.

  • Sporting Legacy

    • Question by: Bob Blackman
    • Meeting date: 15 February 2007
    There is no evidence from previous Games that the event led to any sustained increase in sports participation. Why should London's Games be different?

  • Land Assembly and Preparation of the 2012 Olympic Games (Supplementary) [14]

    • Question by: Bob Blackman
    • Meeting date: 14 June 2006
    Given the experience within my constituency, in Brent and Harrow at Wembley Stadium, where the cost of rebuilding the stadium now is, at conservative estimates with a small `c', five times the original value that was expected, are you going to undertake a review of that particular project as part of the review of the bid documents?

  • Land Assembly and Preparation of the 2012 Olympic Games (Supplementary) [16]

    • Question by: Bob Blackman
    • Meeting date: 14 June 2006
    One of the problems about any sort construction like this is the original surveys of the land to make sure the condition is such. Are you satisfied that the surveys that have been done are sufficiently robust to then defend the inflation and the costs expected?
