  • Tourism in Outer London (Supplementary) [4]

    • Question by: Richard Tracey
    • Meeting date: 04 November 2015
    Richard Tracey AM: I must say that all the foreign visitors I talk to, whether I know them well or not, complain about the large numbers in central London now. It is a buzzy city but it is also, they feel, very crowded, extremely busy and quite tiring. This is a well‑targeted question that Tony Arbour [AM] has put to you about outer London. Can I ask you what you are doing particularly? How much are you spending to encourage people to take a river cruise? Indeed, they will reach Tony Arbour’s constituency. Tony Arbour AM (Deputy Chairman): They will...

  • London's overseas reputation (Supplementary) [2]

    • Question by: Richard Tracey
    • Meeting date: 04 November 2015
    Richard Tracey AM: Can I just ask you one or two more questions about the European dimension?

  • Work of the LDA (Supplementary) [1]

    • Question by: Richard Tracey
    • Meeting date: 13 January 2010
    Could I pursue some of what my colleague, Andrew Boff, has been asking you about? To be honest, we are receiving many comments from the boroughs, from borough leaders and from borough officers, that they are really not content at all with the sort of support for businesses which you are giving, so you are not really pleasing anybody it seems. You are not pleasing the boroughs and you are not pleasing us, certainly when we receive criticism from the boroughs, and you are not actually helping the businesses it would seem. I cannot understand why there should be the...

  • LDA Debt (Supplementary) [2]

    • Question by: Richard Tracey
    • Meeting date: 18 March 2009
    Mr McGrath, you sound to me really rather uncomfortable in this position over the Olympics. Is that a fair description? Are you feeling uncomfortable and really rather insecure about it all?
