  • 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...

    What do you see as the greatest issues/challenges facing London?
  • Challenges Facing London (Supplementary) [1]

    • Question by: Florence Eshalomi MP
    • Meeting date: 07 December 2016
    Florence Eshalomi AM: It is great to see you here as a London Member of Parliament (MP) for Croydon, not too far from my constituency in Lambeth and Southwark. One of the main issues that has been on your agenda and I am sure in your inbox as well has been the issue around Southern Rail. In the run-up to the mayoral election, quite a number of the candidates committed to looking at further rail devolution in London and it is right to say that it is something that has worked quite well with London Overground. Given that there is...
  • Challenges Facing London (Supplementary) [2]

    • Question by: Tony Devenish
    • Meeting date: 07 December 2016
    Tony Devenish AM: Minister, thank you very much for the £3.15 billion. If we listened to the Mayor, we would think he had written the cheque rather than you, but we do appreciate the cheque that came from you. One of my concerns is the lack of actual detail we have had from the Mayor on how he is going to deliver the 90,000 affordable houses and the rest of his commitments. Are you looking for more detail from the Mayor in due course to make sure he delivers? You have given him the money. He now needs to get...
  • Challenges Facing London (Supplementary) [3]

    • Question by: Tom Copley
    • Meeting date: 07 December 2016
    Tom Copley AM: Good morning, Minister. Thank you for being here today. I listened with interest to your exchange with Assembly Member Devenish. It feels to me like your predecessor in the previous Government seemed to put all his eggs in the Starter Homes basket and in the affordable homeownership basket. What you seem to have said by saying that there is no silver bullet is perhaps that that was not the right approach. Do you and the Department for Communities and Local Government (DCLG) support a full range of tenures and affordable tenures for London and does that include...
  • Challenges Facing London (Supplementary) [4]

    • Question by: Len Duvall OBE
    • Meeting date: 07 December 2016
    Len Duvall AM: I would like to return to the issue about rail privatisation and the issues around that. Can I thank you for your earlier statement in saying that you would come back before us? We are very grateful. We know that you do not have to and we look forward to further opportunities to pose questions to you on topical issues. In terms of the transport announcements made yesterday and the links with the wider issues around economic performance, would you agree that the issues in Kent and London coincide? We all want the best for the rail...
