    • Reference: 2009/0117-1
    • Question by: Dee Doocey
    • Meeting date: 21 October 2009
    Do you believe that your employment targets for local people will provide the legacy that was promised in Singapore?

  • Budget and Venues Update (Supplementary) [4]

    • Question by: Dee Doocey
    • Meeting date: 10 November 2007
    Just to be absolutely clear, the £1 billion, plus the inflation, will, in your view, not be exceeded in order to build these permanent and temporary facilities and to upgrade and to turn them into legacy mode, is that correct?

    You won't be working and planning on the Aquatics Centre alone. You are also looking at the other stadia as well. Are they also going through this natural growth process with the budget?

    • Question by: Richard Barnes
    • Meeting date: 10 November 2007
    Are you saying then that within the budget which is within your control come 2012, there will be no further pool for uplift for that budget? You will not exceed that budget?

    We are back to the Mayor's guess work, are we?

    • Question by: Richard Barnes
    • Meeting date: 10 November 2007
    How can we as an Assembly then monitor and spread confidence to Londoners about what is happening if over a period of time the projects are changing and we are not comparing like with like? I recognise the 2004 bid book did not include VAT, did not include build costs, did not include inflation.

    I understand all that, but London can expect no more shocks then?

  • Budget and Venues Update (Supplementary) [25]

    • Question by: Dee Doocey
    • Meeting date: 10 November 2007
    I have got two questions. The first is for John Armitt; could I bring you back to the budget please, and just for clarity I am talking about the £9.3 billion budget. Within that budget you have allocated just over £1 billion for venues. The press reported that the stadium costs have gone up to £500 million and that proved correct. They are also saying that the Aquatics Centre has gone up to £150 million so I am assuming, for the purpose of this discussion, that that is also correct. If that is the case it means that you have...

    I understand that, but if Londoners might end up picking up the bill for the gap of £75 million then perhaps they might be interested in it. Are we comparing like for like now in terms of what the original bid was? I understand an access bridge has now been added to the Aquatics Centre and that has clearly inflated the budget for the Aquatics Centre. Whilst we talk about an Aquatics Centre now, as we did some time ago, we are not actually talking about the same project, are we?
