  • Work of the LDA (Supplementary) [2]

    • Question by: Andrew Boff
    • Meeting date: 13 January 2010
    You identified in your introduction, and I hope I can allude to it then - because it covers the same thing - a number of past failures of the LDA which obviously you are seeking to address. For example, Mr Rogers has said that the LDA's business support programmes were not fit for purpose and I just wondered, first of all, how long that has been going on? How long has the LDA's business support not been fit for purpose and how long do we have to wait before it is?

  • Innovative housing projects (Supplementary) [1]

    • Question by: Andrew Boff
    • Meeting date: 13 January 2010
    Mr McGrath, you said that one of your biggest contributions is to contribute the equity towards the development of projects, in the form of land, and, in order to assist developers, then producing a plan. To what extent do you take a view on the actual quality of that development and how it meets any of the GLA's strategic aims and meets the needs of Londoners, specifically with regard to housing?

  • LDA Priorities (Supplementary) [7]

    • Question by: Andrew Boff
    • Meeting date: 18 March 2009
    Mr McGrath, since the start of the Mayor's Economic Recovery Plan, unemployment nationally, we learned this morning, has increased by 0.5%, the largest amount for a dozen years, and now sits at 2 million. In London, unemployment has reduced by 0.1%. Could you let me know what advice you will be giving to the Government so that the rest of the country can benefit from Boris Johnson's jobs?

  • LDA Debt (Supplementary) [1]

    • Question by: Andrew Boff
    • Meeting date: 18 March 2009
    Mr McGrath, you have said that the technique that you are going to use to deal with the fairly obvious shortfall that there would be on capital receipts that have been fed into the calculations for the Olympic Development that you would lengthen the timescales. Can we be assured that that is the only technique that you will be using and we will not try to make up any shortfall by trying to get capital receipts from those areas of the Olympic development that are not currently scheduled to be sold off?
