  • 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) [15]

    • Question by: Navin Shah
    • Meeting date: 02 July 2020
    Navin Shah AM: Thank you very much. My question is on mental health and the question is to Niran Mothada. The mental health of Londoners has been hugely impacted by COVID-19. What are the arrangements made for supporting Londoners with mental health issues arising out of the pandemic and how is it going to be dealt with in the new normality in the capital?
  • London Recovery Board and London Transition Board (Supplementary) [16]

    • Question by: Murad Qureshi
    • Meeting date: 02 July 2020
    Murad Qureshi AM: Thank you, Chair. My question on childcare is addressed to Niran Mothada, the Executive Director of Strategy and Communications. Childcare is going to be a huge issue when Londoners return to work and in fact has actually been a huge issue whilst we have been in lockdown, as women have been taking up the bulk of caring duties. How can the Board support parents returning to work either at the office or from home, given that I understand 34% of early years providers are facing closure due to COVID-19, as reported by the Sutton Trust?
  • 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?
  • London Recovery Board and London Transition Board (Supplementary) [18]

    • Question by: Nicky Gavron
    • Meeting date: 02 July 2020
    Nicky Gavron AM: Thank you very much, Chair. I want to add my thanks to the team and the panel in front of us for all the work you are doing. My question is to Niran Mothada. To ensure that we have a real green economic recovery and a just transition, will you be building into the social recovery working group and the economic recovery working group green thinking at the very heart of all the work that it has been doing and is going to do? Also, can you tell me how you are going to translate the principles...
  • Olympic Route Network (Supplementary) [2]

    • Question by: Jennette Arnold OBE
    • Meeting date: 21 October 2009
    OK. The other thing around the ORN would be if you can confirm the discussions that you are having with local authorities about the enforcement regime. Will that be handed over to LOCOG or will the lead on the enforcement of the ORN rest with local authorities?
  • Budget and Venues Update (Supplementary) [24]

    • Question by: Jennette Arnold OBE
    • Meeting date: 10 November 2007
    Can I just firstly thank Peter for his interest in my constituents and ask David [Higgins], would he agree with me that there are clear issues that we have to stay on top of. For instance, the travellers have still got to be dealt with. I have seen information that is suggesting that monitoring is going on. What I am not seeing is any written evidence about that, so I think what you could do, certainly to help Peter, myself and others, is to actually release information about the monitoring. I think that would help the different bodies interested in...
  • Budget and Venues Update (Supplementary) [27]

    • Question by: John Biggs
    • Meeting date: 10 November 2007
    Hopefully by Christmas there will not be people living within the Olympic Park who will be subject to such immediate environmental challenges and problems. However, for the wider community, including people I represent across East London and including Jennette's [Arnold] constituency in Hackney and beyond, I think people would be a lot more reassured if we go back to the point that was made earlier about transparency; if there was a clear transparency about environmental information about dust levels and about pollution issues. I know I have been intimately involved in the issue about radioactive waste, for example, and I...
  • Legacy Master plan for the Olympic Park (Supplementary) [5]

    • Question by: Jennette Arnold OBE
    • Meeting date: 10 November 2007
    OK. Can I just go back to Hackney. Hackney Wick station is the closest station to the future employment use in that location. However there are currently no plans to provide a direct pedestrian link. Don't you think it will be a missed opportunity if we can't get a direct link from Hackney Wick to the Olympic Park? I do not understand why this is missing and there has been pressure put but we can't seem to get any answer.
  • Legacy Master plan for the Olympic Park (Supplementary) [6]

    • Question by: Joanne McCartney
    • Meeting date: 10 November 2007
    I have a question pertaining to my area in particular and that is about the canoe venue which is going to be very near Enfield and Waltham Forest in the Lee Valley Regional Park. There have been reports this week that because the original site was contaminated, a new site may be having to be looked at. My question with legacy is this; I know with the original proposals Lee Valley Regional Park were putting in extra money, so there would be a real legacy for the area in terms of children being able to participate and a learning loop...
