• Question by: Fiona Twycross
• Meeting date: 02 December 2015

Fiona Twycross AM: I wanted to correct the impression that was given that the way it has been operating at the moment has been simply about opposition Members [on LFEPA] getting at the Mayor. The fact is that the Mayor has insisted on managing by Direction even when there has not been an impasse, including on issues over which there has been cross‑party agreement by LFEPA Members. I just wondered if you could focus a little bit on what impact the Mayor’s insistence on management by Direction has had. To be honest, we have had Directions on all sorts of...

Richard Tracey AM: Chairman, probably this is one for you as the politician of the two of you. The fact is, surely, that government, particularly local government, has been changing very considerably over recent years. That is accepted. The straight point to you: is it not correct that perhaps LFEPA in its current form is out of date and past its sell‑by date, really?

Fiona Twycross AM: We obviously have to make sensible use of resources in the face of cuts. Some of the new technology that could come online is really interesting and will offer exciting possibilities, but do you agree with the Londoner who contacted me yesterday to say that £283,000 for a website rebuild is bordering on scandalous?

Murad Qureshi (AM): I just want to continue on Richard Tracey's theme, actually, and I think it is a major reputational risk for the ODA, quite honestly, these whole bonuses that you have been giving yourselves. I just want to be clear; how can the ODA possibly justify raking in £2.6 million in salaries and bonuses when there is a funding shortfall for the Olympic sports' venues themselves, and the land assembly in particular?

Good morning Members. We welcome John Armitt and David Higgs who are here with us this morning and we are looking forward to a good exchange of information. Thank you both for coming. Before I go on, can I just say that I was asked by the Olympic Delivery Authority (ODA) to circulate a booklet which you will have found on your seats and John [Armitt] or David [Higgins] will make reference to this booklet in answer to Mr Boff's question [see Appendix 2]. The Deputy Chair and I had a pre-meeting with both John and David and we agreed...
